This booklet gives an overview of the rural sector of the island region of Gozo, Malta and also describes a success story of non-technological innovation on the island. It also aims to demonstrate the development prospects and the problems of the local rural sector and to describe how a non-technological innovative intervention led to the upgrade of a specific component of Gozo’s agricultural infrastructure. The information provided is derived from relevant literature analysis and field work which was carried out for the purposes of Gozo’s Pilot Project for AGRISLES.
