This study addresses the antecedents that may influence the support for the development of agrotourism. A questionnaire was conducted among 560 residents of the northwest region of the Dominican Republic. This area stands out for its agribusiness and has high poverty rates. Using structural equation models, it has been proven that attachment to the community and attitudes towards tourism and tourists are antecedents of support for the development of agrotourism. The importance of residents having a knowledge of tourism in order to ensure trust in public tourism policies has also been evidenced.
