In some cases, those who want to start an agritourism business already have the material resources, as they already own a farm, and only need to transform it into a tourism-focused business. In this case, the entrepreneur will have to analyse current farming activities. Many entrepreneurs have successfully expanded their farm operations to include agritourism enterprises by building on what they are already doing. This allows a producer to share knowledge and enthusiasm with visitors, which can make for a more enjoyable and authentic agritourism experience. Focusing on current production practices will also ensure that the expertise and equipment exists to conduct the operation with minimal additional costs.
