Mountain and upland SAMUTER
These SAMUTERs are developed in mountain and highland areas, with both Mediterranean and Atlantic-humid climates, where mixed farming and forestry systems predominate, with agrological limitations derived from the high altitude, the slope, the erodibility of the soil, and, in general, from…

SAMUTER of great plains and countryside
These SAMUTERs operate in extensive peneplains, plains, fertile plains and sedimentary countryside traditionally used for agriculture or livestock farming, with hardly any direct urban impact. The majority of this type of environment is located in the interior of the peninsula, although there are also important plains in the…

Peri-urban SAMUTER in metropolitan and conurbation contexts
Although most agri-food systems operate under urban influence as a global phenomenon, these SAMUTERs operate in areas close to large cities in metropolitan or urban-regional contexts, with strong pressures on land use and land use….

SAMUTER of the Canary Islands
The insularity of the Canary Islands introduces clear agro-climatic, agrological, productive and commercial differences in the SAMUTER of the islands compared to those of the mainland and the Balearic Islands. These agrosystems develop in a wide variety of environments (ravines, ramps, high slopes, plains, badlands…).
