What is rural opera known as?

There is not specific category. there was an opera called Cavalleria Rusticana-which would translate as Rustic Cavalry. No, not the John Wayne variety! a number of operas had backwoods settings, but there were very few (westerns)- one was Girl of the Golden West, which had a different Italian title. the idea of specifically rural opera is not a viable one. I have never heard it used. A "Horse Opera" is a slang term for a Western drama involving horses, but this is not an opera.
