Abstract

The work analyzes the annual cycle of extensive livestock farming from a transversal perspective. This paper concerns the studies of the stages of winter grazing in the semi-desert of the Bardenas, the uses and enjoyments of the mountain pastures and the cattle routes between the two geographical and climatic regions. The paper aims to contextualize by graphs the analysis of the customs and anthropological level the evolution of this pastoralist reality from an integral perspective and clear expository discourse. Thus, the study concludes with an assessment of the evolution, loss or conservation of character traits of this stock model in the mountain range and the Ebro Lowland.
