Abstract
Sustainable development is one of global imperatives and it involves the harmonization of economic,
environmental, and social development goals, with an appropriate institutional support. There are plenty
of resources pertaining to the sustainable development of agriculture and tourism, as numerous studies
and practical examples worldwide confirm. The paper highlights the example of the Republic of Serbia
and can be of use for other countries with similar resource potentials and developmental constraints.
Namely, agriculture and tourism in the Republic of Serbia are distinguished by abundant natural and
cultural-historical resources, but what mostly lacks are funds for serious investment, as well as a modern
and holistic approach to development, so the available resources are insufficiently used. Accordingly, the
research aims to point to the necessity of a more creative use of agro-tourism resources, i.e. to the more
promising directions of the integral development of agriculture and tourism on sustainable grounds.
The paper results highlight the extreme importance of institutional support to agriculture and tourism
networking within the concept of sustainable development.
