Let's think about agri-tourism

Agri-tourism may sound quite unfamiliar to most of us. However, it is taking off worldwide. It involves any agriculture-based operation or activity that brings visitors to a farm. And there are lots of signs for the growth of agri-tourism in Bangladesh.

People nowadays look for fresh produce straight from the farm. On the weekends, many people visit villages close to the capital city and bring home such fresh produce. Some urban people are so detached from farm life that they will surely look for the farm experience if provided quality services. I urge all entrepreneurs to look into the possibilities of agri-tourism in the country and do the needful.
