“…Moreover, while many international studies have attached importance to the needs for leisure in national parks (Arslan and Kaymaz, 2020;Suckall et al, 2009), this was not found as much in this study. Of course, there were needs for events and programs in terms of management of the ecological environment, but the fact that there were not many requests for diverse programs and education (Arslan and Kaymaz, 2020), landscape (Huai and Van de Voorde, 2022), and health effect (Romagosa, 2018) suggests that people in South Korea still perceive national parks merely as a place for mountain climbing, rather than for leisure. Accordingly, it is necessary to implement policies for users as well in order for national parks to become a place that offers various landscape resources, programs, training facilities, and health effect beyond just a place for mountain climbing.…”

“…There was also a study that surveyed preferences for national parks based on photographs collected from various social classes and set the design direction for national parks considering the characteristics of each social class (Suckall et al, 2009). Another study concluded through a nationwide survey on national parks that plans to build a golf course or a hotel in a national park are not appropriate for maintaining good landscape (Arslan and Kaymaz, 2020). However, studies identifying user requirements through surveys have limitations as they cover only the requirements for items selected by the researchers.…”

Background and objective: National parks are places people from all walks of life can utilize. However, many existing studies are limited in suggesting management plans that fit the characteristics of different age groups of people visiting national parks. Therefore, this study aims to identify the requirements for national parks and set the direction for national park services by age group.Methods: This study collected the requirements for national parks from 902 people of different ages through an online self-administered questionnaire and analyzed them through semantic link network analysis.Results: As a result of the analysis, there were management requirements in two areas related to the environment (rubbish and ecological environment, facilities environment such as safety and forest fires) and one area related to the economy, and a monitoring system for rubbish and ecological environment and a private land management policy for the economy were identified as alternatives. The younger generation was interested in environmental issues, the older generation was interested in economic issues, and the elderly was interested in the facilities environment for safety and forest fires. Therefore, it was found that environmental campaigns should be conducted for the younger generation, admission fees and parking rates should be improved for the older generation, and a safe tour environment should be provided for the elderly.Conclusion: The needs analysis found that it is necessary to establish a monitoring system for all national parks from an environmental perspective and improve the management policy about private land from an economic perspective. Furthermore, environmental campaigns and events were required for the younger generation, benefits related to entrance fees for the elderly, and policies to create a safe facilities environment for the elderly. Establishing such national park policies will improve the satisfaction of users.

“…The authors in [ 13 ] selected different research perspectives and used a combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis methods to study in depth the relationship between cultural heritage and rural tourism from the perspectives of villagers, tourists, and researchers, respectively, and concluded that rural tourism can contribute to cultural heritage. The authors in [ 14 ] researched the Three Gorges Chexi Folklore Scenic Area in the field and analyzed the influence of local residents on rural tourism using resident perception theory. The authors in [ 15 ] took another approach to change the perspective, and they chose rural women as the research object and studied the relationship between women and rural tourism in a village in Lin'an City.…”

Exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA) shows that there is a significant spatial autocorrelation of tourism development in China, which is manifested by the aggregation of spatial distribution. The results of the great likelihood estimation of the spatial lag model show that the parameters ρ of both the total tourism income model and the domestic income model are significantly positive, indicating that the spatial linkage between agricultural and rural tourism income is very strong and the spillover effect of agricultural and rural tourism is larger than that of overall tourism. Tourism superstructure facilities, human resources, and tourism infrastructure are statistically significant and are important influencing factors for overall tourism and agricultural and rural tourism development. And the overall fit of agricultural and rural tourism model is poor. The findings of the study better grasp how to make rural tourism make a greater contribution to the regional economy of Chengdu and maximize its positive role, and put forward relevant countermeasure suggestions, which will provide theoretical guidance and decision-making reference for relevant departments on how to better play the economic effect of tourism, and will also have a realistic reference role on how to develop rural tourism in western cities of China.

“…However, the challenges in maintaining cultural objects were evident, where Kosova scored the lowest average and Montenegro the highest. These findings underline the importance of cultural preservation and sustainable tourism development (Arslan & Kaymaz, 2020). The food quality received positive reviews overall, with nuances in the distribution between the three locations.…”

Agroecology is a scientific subject, an innovative practice and a social movement, which studies ecological processes in relation to agro-food systems, providing new concepts and tools for mainstreaming advanced management strategies of the agroecosystems. The implementation of Agroecology principles may strongly benefit from Biosystems Engineering techniques. Indeed, their synergical integration may contribute to the reduction of the environmental footprint of agriculture, while protecting biodiversity and ecosystems, so leading to better techniques, materials and tools for planning the rural landscape. Several techniques characterized by an eco-friendly impact are currently investigated by Biosystems Engineering, e.g.: building elements for bio-architecture, produced/integrated with natural materials (bricks insulated with straw/wool; concrete reinforced with natural fibers; "adobe" bricks; etc.); Nature-Based Solutions (NBS); fully biodegradable materials (e.g., for soil mulching); remote-sensed data (from drone/satellite) exploited for precision agriculture, to optimize the use of resources (water; soil; agrochemicals; etc.). These solutions may support the formulation of strategies for re-designing agroecosystems at the landscape level, focusing on ecosystem services, biodiversity, water conservation, crop/livestock production, agrochemicals limitation, pollution reduction, and climate change adaptation. This review paper presents the main technical solutions of Biosystems Engineering for Agroecology, able to integrate territorial planning, reducing pollution from agriculture and protecting the rural landscape.
