본 연구는 관광행위를 설명해 줄 수 있는 관광동기요인과 시장세분화를 중심으로 농촌관광객의 특성을 규명하여 관광객의 욕구에 부합하는 농촌지역 관광상품을 개발하는데 필요한 시사점을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위해 이론연구를 배경으로 세 가지 연구문제를 제기하였으며, 편의표본추출법, 자기기입식 설문지법으로 수집된 자료를 빈도분석, 요인분석, 군집분석, 판별분석, 교차분석하여 분석결과를 근거로 연구목적을 달성하고자 하였다. 분석결과, 농촌관광동기요인은 선행연구의 요인구성과 비슷하게 14개 요인으로 구성되어 상대적으로 중요한 농촌관광동기가 무엇인가를 구체적으로 확인할 수 있었으며, 관광동기의 특성에 따라 농촌관광객들은 5가지 관광유형으로 세분되고 사회인구 및 관광변수와의 관계에서 부분적으로 유의적인 차이가 존재하고 있어 세분시장의 설명력을 높여 주었다. 이상의 농촌관광특성과 불편사항 등에 대한 분석결과는 향후 농촌지역의 관광경쟁력을 확보하기 위한 방향을 제시해 준다는 점에서 유용성이 적지 않다. 농촌지역의 소득과 생활의 질을 향상시키기 위해서는 농촌지역의 관광상품과 프로그램 등이 농촌관광객의 기대에 부응할 수 있어야 하기 때문이다.
