  • Characteristics of the gastronomic offer on tourist farms in Slovenia [Elektronski vir]
    Cigale, Dejan, 1965- ...
    The article presents the characteristics of the gastronomic offer on tourist farms and its potential for the development of gastronomy (wine and food) tourism in rural Slovenia. Although this ... potential has already been recognized and repeatedly highlighted in various strategic development documents, no comprehensive research has been conducted at the national level to evaluate the gastronomic aspect of the offer in the context of farm tourism as a supplementary activity. Gastronomy certainly plays a central role on Slovenian tourist farms and in many ways represents a key link between the agriculture and tourism. At the end of 2020, there were a total of 4,930 agricultural holdings in Slovenia with at least one supplementary activity registered on the farm, while supplementary activities of farm tourism are carried out on 1,215 agricultural holdings. Most of these agricultural holdings (957 or 78.8%, respectively) offer accommodation, food and drink, which is particularly important for the development of gastronomy tourism in Slovenian rural areas. Using a survey (conducted from November 2021 to February 2022) on a representative sample of 138 tourist farms from all Slovenian regions, we determined the current food and beverages offer and the inclusion of traditional and local dishes in relation to modern dishes. The interviewed Slovenian farmers see the offer of local drinks and dishes as the biggest opportunity for further development of farm tourism, while other potentials (offer of organic food, collective brands, quality schemes, etc.) are much more in the background.
