Abstract

The Nawa Cita program aims to develop Indonesia, starting from villages, with agritourism as a key economic driver to improve community welfare. This study examines the social impact of agritourism in Tegalrejo Village, Tugumulyo District, Musirawas Regency, South Sumatra. Tegalrejo was chosen due to its growing and visually appealing agritourism sector. This qualitative research gathered data through interviews with agritourism managers and local residents. The analysis focused on the socio-economic impacts, both positive and negative. The findings reveal that agritourism benefits the local community by providing affordable tourism, enhancing social interaction, and improving social status through job creation. It also empowers the community by integrating multiple economic sectors, offering new business opportunities, and increasing village income from taxes and levies. However, negative social impacts include land eviction and pressure on locals from incoming migrants. Economically, the presence of outside investors can lead to competition that may disadvantage local businesses. Despite these challenges, agritourism in Tegalrejo Village remains a crucial factor in fostering economic growth and community development.
