Página creada con «Given the age of the informants and that part of the information was gathered decades ago, we have focused on farming from the end of the 19th to the mid-20th century.»
The agriculture described in this volume of the Basque Ethnographic Atlas is an overview of what mainly was to be found in the 20th century. However, as can be seen in the different chapters making up this work, clear preference is given to the farming practices prior to the intense mechanisation from the 1960s onwards. That does not alter the fact that information has been gathered on the modern farming mainly to be found on the Mediterranean-facing side of the territory, which is clearly more arable and where that activity has undergone a similar transformation to the one experienced in other arable farming regions not only of Spain but also of the European Union.
