The natural attractiveness of rural areas in Vojvodina is a good basis for a rural tourism development. However, in the past, the development of this type of tourism only had a declarative support. Since 2006 the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management of Republic of Serbia have set aside funds to promote a development of rural tourism trough diversification of economic activities in rural areas. In the period 2006-2008, the total realized funds for these purposes in Serbia amounted to 915,800 euros of which 13.3% was realized in Vojvodina. These measures, as well as the tendency of increasing the amount of incentive funds in the aforementioned period, have positively influenced the development of rural tourism. However, analysis of available data indicated that the total amount of realized assets was lower than a totally approved budget. This phenomenon can be explained with lack of initial funding and insufficient preparedness and motivation of people for developing tourism in rural areas. Apart from this, results of demographic analysis of Vojvodina indicate a number of negative tendencies (such as a population decline, an unfavorable age structure and education, etc.) that are particularly pronounced in rural areas. Stronger public support and appropriate education for rural people could create favorable conditions for the rural tourism development. Beside that, the development of rural tourism economically would motivate people to stay in rural areas which would have positive effects on demographic structure of these areas.
