Indian Farmers in village are engaged in farming activity throughout the year. Their income from farm produce depends on good monsoon, good harvest and good marketing. It is experienced that the income from agriculture is only once or twice in the year, but the expenses are on weekly basis, it is very difficult for the farmer to sustain throughout the year, since the income is not sufficient. To make farming sustainable and feasible there was an urgent need for some experiments in addition to traditional farming, after two years of consistent research and studies, we concluded that adding Tourism to agriculture is one such experiment that will generate weekly income which can compensate weekly expenses of the farm.
