Abstract


Unlike other regions, the scant production of wool in Madrid caused the weight factor in breeding to be of less importance. Breeding was nevertheless plentiful though cattle-raising production was orientated towards the consumption of meat and the maintain of the production of leather. This importance is mainly reflected in the interest of the destrict to establish a precise legislation to protect the grazing and pasture areas, the commons and the brooks that supplied the required water. On the other hand, the use of these grazing and pasture areas represented an important source of income for the district; that is why its worry to defend them was two-folded: to maintain these incomes and to be able to feed the animals. In this article, we also talk of the creation of new pasture lands by the district of Madrid while it was economically and demographically expanding.
