Most people work in dockyards and in the building industry. The British naval dockyards are now shipbuilding industries and repair shops. Malta is becoming more dependent on their tourists. Farmers raise cauliflower, onions, wheat, potatoes, tomatoes, and grapes.
Crops are small because of the rocky soil.
They also raise cows, pork, and poultry. Malta has no minerals or natural resources other than salt and limestone. Malta imports more than it exports. Most of its trade is with Britain, Germany, and Italy. Malta has good road service and good bus service that link them to Gozo.
