本文試就大陸農家樂和臺灣民宿的概念、現實差異比較，剖析兩者間的聯繫和區別，以對我國大陸農家樂的現象作一個比較清晰客觀的把握。本文認為，從微觀的經營角度講，大陸農家樂都整體落伍於臺灣民宿。進而認為，這差距核心地表現在人的差距。是大陸農家樂經營業主與臺灣民宿經營業主的「城」「鄉」差異，是「鄉村士紳」與世代農民的差距。這是靠文化普及，短期培訓所不能解決的問題。這就促使我們思考是否需要另闢蹊徑，從政策瓶頸、體制障礙、觀念約束上去尋找突破口。

This paper aims to compare the concept and the situation of the mainland farmer with that of Taiwan B&B and to analyze their correlations and differences in order to obtain a clear idea of the farmer phenomenon. The paper concludes that farmer at large falls behind B&B on the microcosmic management level. Furthermore, the paper points out that it is the individual discrepancy that leads to the result, that is, the discrepancy between the urban and the rural and ”Country Squires” and multigenerational peasants. The issue can't be solved through a short-term cultural spread and job training. And thus we have to find out a new approach such as reducing policy restrictions, system barriers and individual stereotypes to settle the discrepancy.
