In an online survey, farmers have revealed the strangest and funniest things they have been asked by members of the public about what they do.
From what type of cow produces semi-skimmed milk to do pigs make cheese and questions about whether cockerels lay eggs, it is clear there is still a long way to go in bridging the gap between farmers and consumers.
Farmers also faced accusations of being rich and high food prices being due to their greed, as well as comments that livestock was 100% profit as they just ate grass.
The public also asked why there was a bull with dairy cows, if you feed beef to cows and if cows would explode if the farmer forgot to milk them.
Dan Yates, founder of Pitchup.com, said farm stays were helping to educate the public, but there were clearly still a lot of misconceptions.
He added agritourism was a great opportunity to engage with the public and show and tell them first hand how food is produced.
