Profitability of selected agritourism farms

The article aims to present the opinions of service providers on the sources of funding agritourism and profitability. An owner of a tourist facility should have a continuous possibility of obtaining financial resources and be skilled in introducing new organisational methods on his/her agritourism farms efficiently. Most service providers gave a positive answer to a question about making use of financial support for developing a business. As research shows, service providers’ own resources and funding that comes from the European Union for the development of tourism constitute the basic sources of funding agritourism. Half of the respondents – owners of agritourism farms who took part in the survey – were for making use of financial resources offered by the European Union. The share of income from agritourism in most farmers’ personal income was 50%.
