How can the EAFRD support green tourism?

Abstract

The agricultural population decreases everywhere in Europe. The agricultural sector falls prey to both trends : specialisation towards production devoted to agro industry from large economic size farms, and new activities for the others, in order to develop other agricultural functions. Green tourism, especially tourism on farms, is an opportunity for keeping living countries and for sustainable development. Our contribution aims at analysing the agritouristic French supply and its main evolution factors, from scientific work led between 2000 and 2005. Our purpose is to serve the implementation of FEADER, thanks to these pieces of information.
