Koperattiva Rurali Manikata (KRM) Ltd was set up in the Summer of 2007 by a group of farmers and residents of Manikata. Their general aim was to put forward projects that would help to safeguard the natural, historical, social and economic environment of the place. Today the cooperative is working on 4 different projects:

  • The running of the Rural Heritage Trail
  • The restoration of the Razzett tal-Qasam
  • The restoration of the Armoury
  • The promotion of local produce and of typical food
