NEW RULES IN NSW TO BOOST AGRITOURISM
New rules in NSW to boost agritourism
Minister for Regional NSW Paul Toole has released the NSW Government’s agritourism policy aimed at helping diversified farm businesses thrive.
“We’re making it cheaper and easier for our farmers to diversify their income by starting, running and growing agritourism experiences, such as farm stays, cafes, cellar doors, retreats, roadside stalls, fruit picking and small wedding venues,” Mr Toole said.
“Farmers who want to innovate and share a taste of their region with visitors shouldn’t be held back by red tape. That’s why we’ve introduced clear definitions and new planning pathways to allow activities that meet the policy to happen with either faster or no planning approval.”
The proposed changes were on exhibition in early 2021 on the NSW Planning Portal.
The changes will commence on 1 December 2022.
