This study aims to identify the factors influencing the development of community-based agricultural tourism in the villages under investigation. The research area consists of selected rural regions in Kordestan Province, which possess significant agricultural potential due to their geographical location, particularly their unique topography. Local residents have long been involved in agricultural activities, and over the past decade, these areas have experienced a substantial increase in tourist arrivals. Data were collected from five target villages in the county: Shian, Dorud, Noshur Sofla, Dolab, and Gazneh. The study population comprised local land-owning farmers. Initially, using the Cochran formula, a sample size of 242 individuals was determined across all villages, with each village’s share allocated proportionally based on its population. The research employed a descriptive-analytical, survey-based approach, and the collected questionnaire data were analyzed using SPSS and PLS software. The findings reveal that there is no established agricultural tourism model in the region; instead, only daily tourism and ecotourism involving homestays are present. Furthermore, the results indicate that awareness (2.090) and participation (2.159) components have the most significant influence on agricultural tourism, while social (1.17), environmental-infrastructural (13.22), and political-institutional (67.22) factors have the greatest impact on community-based tourism (CBT). Lastly, regarding the status of the studied villages, Shian was found to be the most favorable in terms of CBT, while Dorud and Noshur Sofla showed the best potential for the establishment and development of local community-based agricultural tourism, respectively.
