A report dedicated to Water, at a particularly relevant time as it coincides with an event of great scientific, social and political relevance: the 2008 International Exposition. In Spain there is a long tradition in producing and collecting data on water, which means we are one of the countries with the most information gathered on its water-related assets. The challenge is to convert this into relevant infor- mation of direct use in participative decision-making. Being aware of this shortcoming, but especially of the opportunity represented by such a large amount of informa- tion, the Ministry recently took an important step forward in creating the Integrated Water Information System (SIA), whose aim is to bring together all information related to water, both internal and external, within a single centrali- sed system, using tools to analyse information from a geographical perspective. We are now developing and refining this system with a view to making it the benchmark data resource on water in Spain. At the same time, the Observatory of Sustainability in Spain (OSS) has recovered and ordered a large part of the avai- lable information, appraising it and analysing any deficiencies

  • Spain Country Profile
    Spain Country Profile August 2020 A publication A publication BACKGROUND Geography: Spain is the world's 51st-largest country. It is some 47,000 km2 (18,000 sq mi) smaller than France and 81,000 km2 (31,000 sq mi) larger than the U.S. state of California. Economy and Infrastructure: Spain's capitalist mixed economy is the thirteenth largest worldwide and the fifth largest in the European Union. People: Total population is 48,958,159 and median age is 42.7 years. Agriculture: Agriculture in Spain is important to the national economy. Viewed in terms of land mass, land is devoted to crops: orchards, olive groves, and vineyards. Other agricultural products that benefit from irrigation include grapes, cotton, sugar beets, potatoes, legumes, olive trees, mangos, strawberries, tomatoes, and fodder grasses. Environment: Current environmental issues in Spain is pollution of the Mediterranean Sea from raw sewage and effluents from the offshore production of oil and gas; water quality and quantity nationwide; air pollution; deforestation; desertification. THE WINE INDUSTRY 1. WINE REGIONS 2 | P a g e Source: Wine Folly Spanish wines have a classification system based on the "Denominación de Origen" (DO, designation of origin), which determines where the wine was produced. Andalusia composes most of the south of Spain, and it's the heart of many renowned Spanish traditions. The most important designation of origin in Andalusia is the Jerez DO, under which the famous Andalusian sherry is produced. Aragon lies in the northeast of Spain, its northern frontier touching the Pyrenees. Aragon's variety of climates produces very different wines.

En función de las características propias, se identifica la aptitud de cada parcela para los usos posibles del suelo. 1.1 Encuadre geográfico El municipio de Jaraba se encuentra situado en la cuenca alta del río Mesa, afluente del río Jalón por su margen derecha, entre las formaciones calcáreas de la unidad morfoestructural de la Cordillera Ibérica y la apertura de un pequeño valle hacia sectores septentrionales. Este sector aparece definido por una fisonomía heterogénea, ligada a su personalidad geográfica, su topografía, su ocupación vegetal, su clima, geomorfología y de comunicaciones, en los valles laterales del corredor entre el valle del Ebro y el centro de la Península. Aguas debajo del núcleo de Jaraba, el valle sobrepasa los materiales mesozoicos carbonatados y el río Mesa discurre sobre un estrecho valle cuaternario, donde se desarrollaba una rica huerta de vocación frutícola, en la actualidad muy abandonada y ocupada por cultivos extensivos principalmente de cereal. La cuenca circundante ha sido secularmente muy intervenida mediante una profunda roturación de su cubierta vegetal para usos agropecuarios y/o repoblaciones de coníferas (sector septentrional del término municipal). El término municipal de Jaraba se asienta tomando como eje principal el curso SO‐NE del río Mesa, alrededor del que se han formado el espacio ribereño y de regadío, y se han asentado los corredores de transporte más importantes, base de la aparición del núcleo de población.

The large variety of ecosystems to be found in the province of Zaragoza allow us to easily see birds as different as great bustards, cranes, Egyptian vultures, ferruginous ducks, great bitterns, Dupont's lark, little bustards and red kites among many others. The province of Zaragoza is of great ornithological interest because of both the quantity and the variety of species present for both specialists and for nature lovers who are just beginning to bird-watch. We have suggested some easy routes where the most emblematic birds in each zone - that might pique your interest or those that are endangered - may be found. Zaragoza invites you to meet her ornithological treasures.

  • The Irrigated Area of Valencia, 1859- 1939*
    BIOLOGICAL WELFARE AND NUTRITIONAL INEQUALITY IN RURAL MEDITERRANEAN SPAIN: THE IRRIGATED AREA OF VALENCIA, 1859- 1939* MARÍA-ISABEL AYUDA University of Zaragozaª JAVIER PUCHE University of Zaragozaᵇ ABSTRACT This article analyses the biological welfare and inequality of the male population of the irrigated area of Valencia between 1859 and 1939. It studies the effects that the agrarian development process had on physical welfare and the relationship between height and access to land ownership. Height data for conscripts in five municipalities constitute the source for the study. The results reveal that there was a growing trend in the evolution of heights in the irrigated area of Valencia at the beginning of agrarian capitalism. Nutritional inequalities can be observed between farmers and farm workers: land owners were taller than landless labourers. However, this biological inequality diminished over the period under study.

  • Working Paper IESA 02-03 the FARM INTEREST GROUP SYSTEM
    Documento de Trabajo/ Working Paper IESA 02-03 THE FARM INTEREST GROUP SYSTEM IN SPAIN Eduardo Moyano Estrada Institute of Advanced Social Studies of Andalusia (IESA) Spanish Council of Scientific Research (CSIC) 1 INTRODUCTION In Spain, the interests of farmers are represented by an enormous range of associative forms, making farming the sector with the largest number of organizations within the economy. Cooperatives, chambers of agriculture, farmers’ unions, organizations of producers of a specific commodity, irrigation communities, federations of cooperatives, local organizations for farmers of mountainous regions, and farmers’ assurance mutuals are but some examples of this diversity. Many of these organizations, such as the cooperatives, the chambers of agriculture or the irrigation communities, have their origins in the past, dating back to the old institutions created in the late 19th and early 20th century which have continued to function uninterrupted despite the political changes taking place in Spain in the last century. Others, such as the agricultural cooperatives or the organizations of producers were founded in response to the policies of agricultural modernization developed in the last middle of the 20th century, especially following Spain’s entry into the European Union in 1986. Finally, farmers’ unions have their origins in the early 20th century too, but contrary cooperatives they were suppressed during the Francoist regime (1939-1977). This great diversity of associations can be classified into three broad categories:
