Determination of the evaluation criteria for agritourism via delphi and analytic hierarchy process methods: a case study in Turkey

Öz:
The population is decreasing in the regions whereagricultural lands are prevalent, agricultural areasare not used effectively and efficiently, and boththe afore-said regions and the people livingthere show a recession with each passing day interms of economic, social and cultural aspects.This study examines from a different perspectivethe agritourism, which can be considered asan alternative option for rural development.Accordingly, the main objective of the study is todetermine and weight the evaluation criteria foragritourism. Decision-making techniques such asDelphi and Analytic Hierarchy Process methods havebeen used for this purpose. 52 evaluation criteriahave been determined by common consent througha Delphi study consisting of three rounds. TheAnalytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method has beenused for the calculation of specified criteria weights.In this way, it has been aimed to contribute to thestudies that will be carried out in order to determinethe existence of agritourism potentials in any region.

Tarım Turizmi Değerlendirme Kriterlerinin DELPHI ve Analitik Hiyerarşi Süreci Yöntemleriyle Belirlenmesi: Türkiye’de Bir Vaka Çalışması

Öz:
Her heçen gün tarım arazilerinin olduğu bölgelerde nüfus azalmakta, tarımsal araziler etkin ve verimli kullanılamamakta; söz konusu bölgeler ve bu bölgelerde yaşayanlar ekonomik, sosyal ve kültürel açılardan biraz daha fazla geriye gitmektedirler. Bu çalışma, kırsal kalkınma için alternatif opsiyonlardan biri olan tarım turizminini farklı bir açıdan incelemektedir. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın temel amacı, tarım turizmi değerlendirme kriterlerini belirlemek ve ağırlıklandırmaktır. Bu amaçla Delphi ve Analitik Hiyerarşi Süreci yöntemleri gibi karar verme teknikleri kullanılmıştır. Üç turdan oluşan bir Delphi çalışmasıyla üzerinde uzlaşmaya varılan 52 adet tarım turizmi değerlendirme kriteri belirlenmiştir. Belirlenen kriterlerin öneciliklerinin tespiti ve ağırlıklarının hesaplanması için Analitik Hiyerarşi Süreci yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bu yolla, herhangi bir bölgenin tarım turizmi potansiyelinin var olup olmadığının tespit edilmesine yönelik yapılacak çalışmalara katkı sağlanması amaçlanmıştır.
