Abstract

Agrotourism is one form of rural tourism that offers agricultural activities as a tourist attraction and involves local residents in planning and managing agrotourism areas. One of the principles of sustainable agrotourism development is community participation in planning. The development of agrotourism-based local potential has a positive impact on farmers, rural communities, and village governments. However, on the other hand, because the development of this potential relies on natural resources, its development is also very dependent on nature. In addition, the limited budget and the role of village governments to create excellent programs in supporting the development of agrotourism-based local potential. Kuningan Regency has agrotourism potential with superior objects, processed products made from plants and fruits, cultural uniqueness and beautiful panorama.

While the government provides facilities in the form of providing places. One of the trainings that can be done is training to become a professional guide, training on homestay arrangement, and training on entrepreneurial spirit.
