CHAPTER – 2 LITERATURE STUDY & DATA COLLECTION
2.1 AGRO-TOURISM
A term ‘Agro-Tourism’ is a new face of tourism. An Agro-tourism is farm based business that is open to the public. These specialized Agro-tourism destinations generally offer things to see, things to do, and produce or gifts to buy, and are open to the public. Agritourism is defined as “Travel that combines agricultural or rural settings with products of agricultural operations – all within a tourism experience”. According to Mr. Pandurang Tavare (ATDC, Pune) - “Agro-Tourism is that AgriBusiness activity, when a native farmers or person of the area offers tours to their agriculture farm to allow a person to view them growing, harvesting, and processing locally grown foods, such as coconuts, pineapple, sugar cane, corn, or any agriculture produce the person would not encounter in their city or home country. Often the farmers would provide a home-stay opportunity and education”. Agro-Tourism and Eco-Tourism are closely related to each other. Eco-Tourism provides by the tour companies but, in the Agro-tourism farmers offer tours to their agriculture farm and providing entertainment, education and fun-filled experiences for the urban peoples.

Agro-tourism is a way of sustainable tourist development and multi-activity in rural areas through which the visitor has the opportunity to get aware with agricultural areas, agricultural occupations, local products, traditional food and the daily life of the rural people, as well as the cultural elements and traditions. Moreover, this activity brings visitors closer to nature and rural activities in which they can participate, be entertained and feel the pleasure of touring. 2.2 TYPES OF AGRO-TOURISM
The scope of Agro-tourism varies drastically depending on the type of farm, available land and how much of the business is aimed at the Agro-Tourism market. However, the varying forms can be broken down into three basic groups. 1. Direct market Agro-tourism : if you have ever seen a road side produce stan, you have seen direct market Agro-Tourism in action. Farmers sell goods like produce, canned items and other organic products directly to consumers either at markets and fairs or on the farm itself, often along side other Agro-Tourism offerings. Farmers may be selling an organic product similar to what consumer could find at a grocery store, but their product has the added appeal of coming directly from a local farm. To appeal to some consumers, the goods may be marketed as organic , all natural , or the product of “old fashioned” methods. 2. Education and experience Agro-tourism: this form of Agro-Tourism includes pick yours own apple grove, farm tours, bed and breakfasts and packages aimed at giving guests a hands on education in farm life. The farm itself is marketed as a tourist destination. whether Agro tourists pay to pick their own produce, attend wine tastings at a vineyard or simply enjoy the farm atmosphere, the draw is first hand experience. Once visitors are acquainted with the farm more closely, they may also be more inclined to buy its agricultural products. 3. Recreation and event Agro-tourism: while still considered Agro-Tourism, these offerings tend to involve using farm land for other marketable uses. Harvest festivals, corn mazes, haunted hay rides and country wedding held on farm land may draw heavily on the farm’s atmosphere. Other activities like camping , archery and horseback riding are often less dependent on the farm itself . however, such forms of Agro-Tourism still draw in guests who may be tempted to buy goods. 15 | P a g e

2.3 HISTORY OF AGRO-TOURISM
Agro-Tourism is a relatively new concept and since it is associated with farming sector, it is has more importance in agrarian country like ours. Agro-tourism and its concept differs from country to country. It provides a consistent source of income to the farmers. There are many examples of villages , states and country benefiting from Agro-Tourism. For eg. Austrailia, Brazil, New Zealand, countries in Europe etc. it is believed that the concept of Agro-Tourism was first introduced in the countries like Australia, new Zealand and Brazil.
Figure . Agro - Tourism activity
Now the world over, Agro-tourism is taking roots as an important sector of an economy the countries like Australia, Malaysia, Europe, America, Canada, Philippines and India have understood the importance of Agro-tourism and hence it I a new and powerful occupation. It can be best embodied by the example of state of Malaysia. When there was financial meltdown in 2008 all over the world, Malaysia went in European countries and explained to them the concept of Agro-tourism. It also explained how it coped with the financial meltdown. Malaysian government also offered study tours to people interested in understanding the Agro-tourism. The Agro -tourism is taking firm roots in many countries as a supplementary source of income for the farmers. And since the concept of Agro-Tourism is based on environmental sustainability, it causes least damage to the environment. In india the concept of Agro-Tourism took first in the state of Maharashtra. The first Agro-Tourism centre was also opened in the state of Maharashtra. The number of such centres in the state is increasing rapidly. Ata present there area around 350 AgroTourism centres in Maharashtra alone . and it is expected that this number would rise even further. Chandrashekhar Bhadsavle and agriculture graduate first started his Agro-Tourism centre,’Saunga Baug’ in 1985,. He has rice plantation, fish harvesting in farm lakes, coconut, mango, chickoo trees, and other fruit plantations along with 17 | P a g e
vegetables. Similarly , in 2004 Pandurang Tawre started his Agro-Tourism centre in Baramati. He has also tried to bring together all the people engaged in this sector to form some kind of association

2.4 FARMING TECHQUES IN AGRICULTURAL FIELD
➢ Hydroponics In hydroponics farming, plants are grown without soil, they use mineral nutrients in a water solvent to help cultivate the plants. Hydroponics farming has become popular and provides more advantages than traditional farming methods. It eliminates problems by soil-related cultivation such as insects, fungus and bacteria that form in soil, it also eliminates the use of pesticides or fertilizers making it low maintenance. They do not require too many labours to manage the production hence decreasing labour cost. Moreover, it uses CEA, controlled environment agriculture, which helps in controlling the temperature, moisture, oxygen level, etc. Therefore, this allows crops to grow all year round resulting in higher yield of crops compared to traditional farming methods.
18 | P a g e
Figure. schematic diagram of a hydroponic system
➢ Aeroponics Aeroponics farming is similar to hydroponics farming but a more advanced version. Its system is enclosed is an air and water ecosystem that cultivates plants with little water and direct sunlight without the usage of soil. To compare hydroponics and aeroponics, hydroponics uses water solvents as a growing medium for the crops and aeroponics do not have a growing medium, instead, it used a must or nutrient solution, therefore, does not require vegetable trays or containers to hold water, The farming system is enclosed hence the nutrient solution is recycled which helps in saving water, making it suitable for countries that are water scarce. This farming methods is also low maintenance as it does not use fertilizers and pesticides. Similar to hydroponics farming. It grows plants all year round with higher yields compared to traditional farming methods.

Figure. schematic diagram of a aeroponics system
➢ Aquaponics Aquaponics farming system integrates aquaculture and hydroponics system to create a symbiotic relationship between fish and plants this system uses nutrients from the fish wastes to fertilize and irrigate the hydroponics beds. These hydroponics bed also helps in removing gases, acids, and chemicals from the water the aquaponics system is a sustainable food production model that follows the reduce , reuse and recycle . There are plenty of advantages of using aquaponics system . • Cleaning water for the fish habit. • Providing organic liquid fertilizers that enable. • The healthy growth of plants. • It is efficient the waste products of one biological system serves as nutrients for a seconds biological system. • Saving water since water is reused through biological filtration and recirculation . • Reducing even eliminating the need for chemicals and artificial fertilizers. • Supplying locally grown healthy food since the only fertility input is fish feed and all of the nutrients go through a biological process.

2.5 DESIGN PROTOTYPE
➢ Hydroponic A-Frame structure A-frame structure have its PVC pipes placed horizontally to form a triangular tower, this form allows more growing surface with decreasing sunlight access. This system allows twice the amount of crop production than any other regular plant beds. One A-frame structure can accommodate up to 168 plants in a 6’X10’ space it is important to check the water temperature for this system and maintain it around 65 degrees for optimal water oxygenation for root protection moreover, this system uses nutrient film technique (NFT) system uses nutrient solution is pumped into the PVC tubes and flow over the roots of the plants. This system does not require the need for growing mediums.
Figure.schematic diagram of vertical hydroponic tower
➢ Hydroponics stacked beds They are created as greenery archives with shelves stacked on top of each other. In this system, sunlight does not penetrate in each layer, therefore it needs artificial lighting. They use LED lights, the light colour and intensity can be controlled 21 | P a g e
according the type of plants moreover, this system uses vegetables trays that are perforated, and the roots are exposed to nutrient with water solvent.
Figure. example of a hydroponic A Frame structure
➢ Vertical hydroponics towers Hydroponics towers are also called a grow tower, they are made up of food – grade PCV pipes with equally spaced slots for plants to cultivate. These slots are opened up using a heat process and customized to the size of the plant. Water is pumped to each of the towers from the top layer and flows down to each individual pods. This water is recycled and reused. This process save up water by 90% compared to traditional farming.

3.3 AGRO HOUSIING : WUHAN CHINA
Project Type: Multi - Family Residential Architect : Knfao Kilmore Architects Area : 10,000 Sq.M. Year Of Completion : 2015 Client : Living Steel Location : Wuhan, China Climate : Warm, Humid Context : Suburban The idea behind Agro-Housing is to create, a close to home space where families can produce their own food supply according to their abilities, tastes, and choices allowing citizens more independence, freedom, and an additional income. THE AGRO – HOUSING ASSEMBLAGE ➢ Agro-housing is a significant study that addresses the juxtaposition of urban living with agriculture. ➢ In the design of the apartment, the spaces incorporate within them two basic elements – apartment type housing towards the north, east and west and a multi – floor greenhouse- in the southern façade . ➢ the apartment contains a centrally placed core that divide the community from the cultivated spaces but at the same time grants equal access to the green space from all the apartments , for the unification of the community . ➢ the apartment promote the sense of individualism , while, the agriculture components are located at the interface between the apartment In order to act as spatial bridges for communal harmony in the common areas. ➢ Ultimately, the design implements vertical farming to allow assimilation of the agricultural lifestyle and rural culture into urban living. CONCEPT ➢ The concept of agro housing is a housing program that will allow the formation of a new social and urban order and that can replicated as it represents basic human values lost in the process of modernization and progress. ➢ Agro housing will reduce the need for commuting and the extra development of the transportation system and it will replace the urban zoning strategy by more sustainable urban conception.
