Abstract
While intergovernmental cooperation has received significant attention in research, inter-village government collaboration remains understudied. This study examines agrotourism development in Tanggeran, Kemawi, and Klinting villages in Banyumas Regency, Indonesia, exploring opportunities and challenges. Using a qualitative approach with interviews, document analysis, and observations, it evaluates collaborative strategies and identifies hindrances. The results reveal a misalignment between development strategies and village potentials, with a problem-solving approach neglecting inherent capabilities. Institutional frameworks display inefficiencies, with inadequate infrastructural development for agrotourism promotion. The study suggests a shift towards leveraging strengths and improving institutions and infrastructure, providing valuable insights for future collaborative agrotourism efforts.

Regional Science Policy & Practice (RSPP) is the official policy and practitioner orientated journal of the Regional Science Association International. It is an international journal that publishes high quality papers in applied regional science that explore policy and practice issues in regional and local development. It welcomes papers from a range of academic disciplines and practitioners including planning, public policy, geography, economics and environmental science and related fields. Papers should address the interface between academic debates and policy development and application. RSPP provides an opportunity for academics and policy makers to develop a dialogue to identify and explore many of the challenges facing local and regional economies.
