Descripción
The objectives of this work were (i) to present a computer simulation model of the dehesa system to establish the productivity and the most suitable stocking rate for cattle, sheep, and Iberian pig; and (ii) to explore the key process of the dehesa system in an environment with a large variability such as the Mediterranean climate.The Dehesa model is a fine procedure to estimate average acorn and pasture production. Its application for experimental simulation of tree cover showed a reduction of cows¿ stocking rates with both the increased of tree density and hogs potential. The total income per hectare showed a maximum value among 25 to 50% percent of tree cover (22 to 44 mature trees ha-1). In the Extremadura region there is not decoupling of cows¿ EU-subsidies. Subsidies increase income related to herbivores, and farmers are not investing to maintain a high tree density.
