Abstract:
India is a country with diverse climatic conditions and a variety of cultural offerings with agriculture as the backbone. It is always observed that Natural calamities resulting from misuse or overuse of land resources cause havoc in terms of culture as well as the economic condition of the host population, especially the farmers. They desperately need guidance on sustainable agriculture and Agritourism practices as a source of alternate income.The present study covers these aspects and attempts to form a linkage with tourism resulting in both economic progress and resource sustainability.The Researcher follows a combination of Ethnographic Study and Case Study methods, by systematically deriving information from the results of findings that were conducted to address similar types of queries. Personal Interviews were conducted at selected places of Agritourism in the Maharashtra district of India, to compare and form a model for Agritourism development.
The result shows that Visitors are willing to travel to these destinations as an attraction, and Agriculture forms a major part of the same.A systematic way of land use can help the farmers to sustain their agricultural produce and linking with tourism can result in an alternative source of income as well as sustainable development of the area.The Review and Analysis can result in further research on the area and could be a source of a Sustainable Model which could be followed throughout since proper use of land and uplifting of the economic conditions along with preservation of heritage is required globally.
