Description

This is my first book based on the research on agritourism in Shaktikhor VDC in Chitwan district, Nepal. It's actually one of the first research on Agritourism in Nepal. Prior to this, none had done any study or research on it's prospects and potentials in the country, though Nepal is agricultural based country with lots of potentials. Therefore, I personally faced many challenges in terms of finding literatures and conducting research. However, I feel proud that I am one of the first researchers conducting agritourism research in Nepal and able publish this book. Nowadays, many tourism related organizations and government itself have prioritized the promotion and development of agritourism industry in Nepal. For instance, celebration of rice plantation day (Ropai Jatra) every year in every part of the country, which is good indication for promotion and development of this industry in Nepal. In fact, many tourists and youth are also attracted to celebrate it. Likewise, there are many such important agriculture related ceremonies, events that need to be documented and promoted for agritourism industry in Nepal.
