The method can be used to estimate the economic benefits or costs resulting from: 1) changes in access costs for a recreational site, 2) elimination of an existing recreational site, 3) addition of a new recreational site, and 4) changes in environmental quality at a recreational site. The basic premise of the travel cost method is that the time and travel cost expenses that people incur to visit a site represent the "price" of access to the site. Thus, peoples' willingness to pay to visit the site can be estimated based on the number of trips that they make at different travel costs. This is analogous to estimating peoples' willingness to pay for a marketed good based on the quantity demanded at different prices.

Abstract

Despite its rich potentials, agritourism in West Bandung regency has been stuck in the status quo and needs new ideas. The farmers are struggling on their own with minimal support from the government, the uniqueness of their local culture has never been exposed, and the infrastructure is poor. The concept of ‘agropolitan’ is one of the best possibilities to implement. The aim of this research is to create an agropolitan strategy that that is workable based on the analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT analysis). The research objects were 15 micro-scale community-based agritourism farmers and 5 agritourism MSMEs. This research used qualitative methodology with in-depth interviews and field observations. The research came up with a strategy that requires the materialization of the following items: Agropolitan promotion centers will prepare a central tourism information system, one stop shopping packages, parking lots, and tour transportation. Agropolitan stakeholders will need to improve service quality, increase collaboration and provide employment. Whereas the local governments will have to provide support for facilities, infrastructure, regulations, signage and gates. All this will be able to increase promotion and empower MSMEs. If implemented, this will be able to revitalize agritourism much better.
