Australian Regional Tourism submitted a pre-budget submission for the 2024–25 Budget, which seeks long-term support for sustainable Australian farming through agritourism diversification.
The proposal seeks $14 million ($10m in direct-to-farm grant funding + $4m in industry development) over four years to support farmers to diversify into tourism, increase high-yield export ready product, strengthen Australia’s regional economies, and grow on-farm agritourism from $7.4B to $18.6B by 2030.
The submission was endorsed by several regional organisations, including the National Farmers Federation.Â
