Abstract

The spatio-temporal evolution of the farmland in two Spanish mountain areas (the Aragonese Pyrenees and the Iberian System of La Rioja, Cameros Viejo) is studied with relation to the particular geoecological features of each mountain and its capacity for integration into the national economy. A drastic desertion process during the fifties in the Pyrenees and a later slowing down was observed; Cameros however shows a slower farmland reduction in the first stage and an acceleration during the sixties. The original desertions are clearly linked to the farming capacity of the land, whereas the more recent desertions have more to do with their ability to become part of the national economy through pastureland resources and tourism. -English summary
