Airbnb and the Queensland Farmers Federation have partnered in a move to encourage more people to come and stay on local farms.
The collaboration aims to bring valuable tourism dollars to the regions while helping farmers to diversify their income.
QFF CEO Georgina Davis said the partnership was a positive step in raising Queensland's profile as an agritourism destination in Australia, estimating the sector was worth around $5 billion to the state economy by 2030.
"Agritourism provides opportunities for farmers to expand their businesses and market their produce through alternative channels, while gathering valuable feedback from consumers," Dr Davis said.
