Explotación forestal e industria resinera en España: 1900-1936

Abstract

In the decades that preceded to the Civil War, the Spanish resin industry had an intense productive development. Their presence extended in a wide geographical space whose fundamental nucleus was situated in the northern Castillan meseta. The quality and extent of the masses of coniferous existent in numerous provinces of the Spanish inland, allowed the development of an industry in eminently rural areas and configured a forest space submited to an intense exploitation and adapted to the requirements of the industry.
