Formation of regional agro-tourism clusters as a tool for sustainable development of rural areas

The purpose of the study is to justify the role of agro-tourism as a promising area for ensuring sustainable development of rural areas. As the most effective tool for solving these problems, it is proposed to create regional agro-tourist clusters that have a synergistic effect and promote the multiplicative growth of the economy of the agrarian region, address a number of socio-economic, demographic and environmental problems, and preserve the historical and cultural heritage of peoples living on their territory.
