Jamón Ibérico Del ó Jam n Ibérico Considered the finest ham in the world, Iberico Ham is produced exclusively from a specific breed of Black Pigs that are native to the central and southwestern region of the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal). The pigs roam free in forests of ancient oak trees and feed on a diet of acorns. They are then salt cured, and the meat is aged for as long as 48 months to add richness to the texture and flavor.

  • The Neolithic Expansion in Andalucia 5800 BC – 4700 BC
    The Neolithic Expansion in Andalucia 5800 BC – 4700 BC At the close of ‘The Mesolithic in Andalucia’ we looked at how climate change after 5800 BC forced the Mesolithic communities to abandon most of their established sites and concentrate in the areas that offered a sustainable supply of food throughout the year, principally the Muge shell midden sites of the Tagus estuary and sites on the Sado estuary, both in Portugal, leaving Andalucia, according to the archaeological evidence, essentially, abandoned. A similar occurrence may have taken place south of the Alps. In ‘The Neolithic Expansion to Andalucia’, we mentioned the temporary cessation of Neolithic advance in an area south of the Alps from about 6000 BC to 5400 BC and hypothesised that this was due to the continued presence of Mesolithic people. It could be that the cold, arid conditions that started in the west about 5800 BC and reached the eastern Mediterranean about 4500 BC, forced the Mesolithic bands south of the Alps to abandon their territories about 5400 BC, leaving the area open for a continuation of the Neolithic advance. In ‘The Neolithic Expansion to Andalucia’ we looked at how the Neolithic people had moved from their homeland in the Fertile Crescent, west through the Mediterranean regions by land and sea until they arrived in Andalucia about 5800 BC, in the middle of a climate change that had lowered temperatures by 30C and created arid conditions in much of Andalucia. It has been observed that, in general, the Neolithic settlement pattern in the Iberian Peninsula, was to establish a semi-permanent base on the coast, increase the population for a generation or two and then move further along the coast and inland via the river valleys.

  • Re-Design of an Agro-Silvopastural Montado System on a Large-Scale Farm in Portugal

Thesis WAGENINGEN UNIVERSITY Farming Systems Ecology Group FSE - 80424 ISARA-Lyon Department Agroecology and Environment Supervisors: Kees Van Veluw, Wageningen University Jeroen Groot, Wageningen University Alexander Wesel, ISARA – Lyon University ABSTRACT Campo Frio is a farm that in the last years was in some areas overused, due to intensive production of cereals and eucalypts, and in other areas underused, completely abandoned full of shrub invasion. These landuse have created several problems to the farm along the last decades like soil erosion, deforestation, extinction of fauna and flora species, wildfires and also, losing an important patrimony of Portugal that is the Montado system. Montado is an agro-silvo-pastural production system that has more than 500 years and combine trees (Oaks), shrubs, cereals production and extensive grazing animals like pigs, sheep, goats and cows. The aim of this study was to re-design a large scale farm, based on four steps: 1) Farm diagnosis, 2) Define objectives for the farm’s future, 3) Design the farm and 4) Sensitivity analysis, supported by two models Farm DESIGN and NDICEA. The design undertaken was an extensive Montado system, combining 50 sow Black Iberian pigs and 600 Churra do Campo sheep with the goal to have a self sufficient farm in terms of animal feed with a specific diet and crop rotation, in a 621ha farm.

Living organisms respond to environmental short- and long-term variability: acknowledging this may help in the ultimate goal of valorizing a territory/product. We investigated acorns of the two main Quercus species of the Portuguese Montado, a main feed of the renown black Iberian pig. We tested their responses to an aridity gradient by morphological parameters and isotopic signature. Q. rotundifolia and Q. suber acorns did not differ morphologically, even if a higher variability in all parameters was observed in acorns of Q.
