Agro-Silvo-Pastoral System of the León Mountains
Agro-Silvo-Pastoral System of the León Mountains, Agricultural heritage system in León Province, Spain
The mountain agricultural system combines farming, forestry, and grazing activities across different altitude levels in León Province throughout the seasons.
The pastoral practices in León mountains have maintained continuity for more than two millennia, adapting to environmental and social changes over time.
Local farmers move their livestock between lower pastures and mountain areas, following seasonal patterns that shape the regional agricultural traditions.
European Union agricultural policies provide financial assistance to maintain sustainable management practices in the León mountain agricultural landscape.
The integration of trees with grazing areas enhances pasture productivity while supporting biodiversity conservation in the agricultural environment.
