“…Agritourism has been used to improve local communities' economic and social conditions through job creation and improved incomes, as highlighted by Bachok et al (2019). Domi and Belletti (2022) also emphasized that providing new job opportunities for farming families, in addition to original agricultural jobs, is one of the benefits of agritourism. The expansion of the farm's activities, the full exploitation of its resources, and its development to receive visitors provide new job opportunities such as reservation, accommodation, tour guides, and selling gifts and souvenirs (Lago, 2017).…”

This study aims to assess the link between agritourism and job creation, handicraft sales, living standard, and governmental support. The study also aims to explore the mediating role of governmental support in the link between agritourism and job creation, handicraft sales, and living standards. To meet the aim of the study, a survey was constructed to collect data from agritourism workers in Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Four hundred eighty-three questionnaires were issued, but only 313 were analyzed. The results indicated that agritourism was significantly and positively linked with job creation, handicraft sales, living standards, and governmental support. The results also revealed that governmental support significantly and positively correlates with job creation, handicraft sales, and living standards. Moreover, the results concluded that governmental support plays a partial mediating role in the link between agritourism and job creation, handicraft sales, and living standard. Theoretical implications for developing agritourism studies, as well as practical implications, are provided for owners, consultants, and policymakers of small-scale tourism businesses in rural areas.

One of the preconditions for the development of agritourism is the cultivation and production of natural agricultural products. It is for this purpose that we studied the specificity of the interdependency between tourism and agriculture on the example of Guria, one of the regions of Georgia. The potential and development perspectives of all three municipalities of the region (Ozurgeti, Chokhat’auri, and Lanchkhuti) are discussed in the article. The study is focused on the main elements of agritourism, on the local possibilities of food production, and on its natural character. The results of the research prove that there is a great interest among tourists in this activity, which is due to the purchase and tasting of quality and safe food and their participation in its production. Besides that, hindering factors are identified: in the first place, it is the ignoring of food safety rules, the failure of the infrastructure, and insufficient financial resources.

“…Chase et al (2018) view direct sales as an integral part of the agritourism experience: food products, and other direct purchases made on the farm, are essentially souvenirs from the agritourism experience. Acquisition of souvenirs has been identified as a primary motivation for travelers (Timothy 2005) and demand for locale-specific agricultural products through direct sales in agritourism demonstrates consumer desires for short food supply chains (Nemes, et al 2019;Domi and Belletti 2022). Additionally, direct sales revenue has been shown to be crucial to the viability of agritourism enterprises (Barbieri and Tew 2010).…”

Agritourism and direct-to-consumer sales are increasingly used as diversification strategies to generate additional farm revenue streams. Yet despite their growing importance, the impacts, interactions, and adoption of these strategies remain poorly understood. Here we use univariate and bivariate local Moran’s I statistics to identify agritourism and direct-to-consumer sales hotspots in the United States and a Seemingly-Unrelated-Regression Spatial Durbin Model to examine the association between agritourism and direct farm sales to consumers. We find that agritourism and direct sales reinforce each other within the same county but not consistently across neighboring counties.
