The CRC have published two reports on growth in rural England. In the first of these reports, ‘Recovery and growth in rural England: What are the signs of recovery and directions for growth in rural economies?‘, which was submitted to the Minister for Rural Affairs in early June 2010, the CRC examine rural economies for signs of recovery and draw some headline conclusions about how those operating in rural economies are preparing for growth.
In the second report, ‘Growth sectors in rural England: perspectives on planning for growth by rural businesses, authorities and organisations‘, the CRC describe more in detail some of the sectors of economic growth and barriers to the release of economic potential in rural areas.
The reports draw on submissions to a call for evidence as well as on national and local surveys, reports and forecasts.
