The International Çukurova Agriculture and Tourism Congress represents a unique platform that brings together researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and industry leaders to explore the interconnected relationship between agricultural development and sustainable tourism. Considering local, regional, national, and international priorities, in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the congress adopts research, environmental awareness, and academic activities that contribute to the development and welfare of society within the scope of "Social Contribution Policy." The congress aims to foster collaboration between agricultural communities and tourism sectors while promoting sustainable practices that benefit both rural economies and cultural heritage preservation.

Scope of the Congress
This congress aims to address the multifaceted relationship between agriculture and tourism through an interdisciplinary approach within the framework of sustainable development principles. The congress covers agritourism development, rural tourism strategies, sustainable agricultural practices that support tourism, farm-to-table initiatives, cultural heritage preservation in agricultural communities, and the economic impacts of agriculture-based tourism on local communities. In this context, sharing of current scientific studies in the fields of agricultural tourism, rural development, sustainable farming practices, tourism management, cultural preservation, food security, agricultural economics, environmental sustainability, and community-based tourism is encouraged. The congress particularly welcomes research on innovative approaches to combining agricultural production with tourism experiences, creating value-added agricultural products for tourist markets, and developing sustainable tourism models that support local farming communities.
