What Is A Farmstay?
The foundation of the Indian economy is agriculture, and agritourism is one of the newest ideas to transform the country’s tourist sector. Encouraged by the increasing demand for homestays in India, farmstays—basically, a homestay on a farm—are booming all over the nation. They offer a genuine, hands-on glimpse into rural life in the deliciously clean country air.
A “farm stay” is an overnight stay on a farm that is paid for and offers the opportunity for guests to engage in social, recreational, or educational activities centred around agricultural techniques, qualified goods, or both.
