Domestic Tourist Segment to Generate Highest Revenue in Global Agritourism Market
Domestic agritourism is projected to continue generating the highest market revenue and emerging as a promising avenue for sustainable rural development. In addition, extrapolate’s research indicates that the growing interest of locals in exploring the rural lifestyle, agriculture techniques, and other related outdoor activities such as horse riding and camping has significantly contributed to the segmental growth.
Furthermore, domestic tourists are attracted to experiencing local cultures and traditions. This, in turn, offers an opportunity to support the local economy. For instance, the gaining popularity of the farm-to-table trend, where visitors can participate in activities such as picking fruits and vegetables, milking cows, or making cheese, adds value to the agritourism experience.
In the last few years, to fully capitalize on the potential of domestic agritourism, governments around the globe have started to address the challenges farmers face in terms of infrastructure, training, and marketing. In line with this, they have begun promoting rural tourism, providing financial support for infrastructure development, and creating training programs for farmers. As a result, many urban consumers are attracted to these activities around the globe, further supporting segmental growth.

On-farm Sales to Hold Second Largest Revenue Share in Global Agritourism Market
The on-farm sales segment held the second largest market share after outdoor activities in the global agritourism market in 2022 and is projected to continue to maintain its position in the coming years, according to Extrapolate’s analysis. In addition, this segment offers farmers higher profit margins as it eliminates mediators or distributors.
According to a USDA study, farmers who participated in agritourism earn an average of 33% more per production unit than those who sell through traditional channels. Additionally, selling directly to consumers allows farmers to benefit from the increasing interest in locally-grown produce. This trend has led to an 86% increase in farmers’ markets in the US between 2008 and 2021.
Selling directly to consumers offers farmers a competitive edge and diversifies their revenue streams by selling value-added products and agritourism experiences. It has been found that agritourism businesses that sell directly to consumers generate most of the revenue from diversified streams by offering value-added products such as jams, jellies, baked goods and agritourism experiences such as farm tours, pick-your-own, and farm-to-table dinners.
North America to Generate More than 45% of Sales Revenue of Global Agritourism Market.
According to the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer and Statistical Supplement in September 2022, North America experienced a 103% increase in tourism from January to July 2022 compared to 2021. As a result, North America remains the largest market for agritourism, generating over 45% of the global market revenue. The growth of the agritourism market in North America can be attributed to several factors, such as strong government support, changing lifestyles, increasing focus on sustainable farming, and growth in farm sales.
In addition, direct-to-consumer sales are projected to contribute the highest revenue to the North American agritourism market. This includes sales through farmer’s markets, community-supported agriculture (CSA) programs, and other direct sales channels. This trend also supports the increasing demand for locally produced food and a desire for consumers to connect with their food source.
