The population is decreasing in the
regions where agricultural lands are prevalent, agricultural areas are not used
effectively and efficiently, and both the afore-said regions and the people
living there show a recession with each passing day in terms of economic,
social and cultural aspects. This study examines from a different angle the
agritourism which can be considered as an alternative option for the creation
of a significant impact which may decelerate, stop or even reverse the
above-mentioned recession. Accordingly, the main objective of the study is to
determine and weight the evaluation criteria for agritourism. Decision-making
techniques such as Delphi and Analytic Hierarchy Process methods have been used
for this purpose. 52 evaluation criteria have been determined by common consent
through a Delphi study consisting of three rounds. The Analytic Hierarchy Process
(AHP) method has been used for the determination of the priorities in the
specified criteria and for the calculation of their weights. In this way, it
has been aimed to contribute to the studies that will be carried out in order
to determine the existence of agritourism potentials in any region.
