The IV edition of Pastorated Territories has been held in Girona from September 25-28. Within the framework of this theme, a thorough and complete program was developed to put current issues on extensive livestock on the table.

The aim of these days was to share experiences, make visible innovative projects and continue advancing with tools of the 21st century in a traditional trade such as extensive livestock, which today is more necessary than ever, both for people and for the planet.

The conference was organized around four main axes;

• Formation and adaptation of grazing in a changing future
• The role of women in extensive livestock
• Forest fire prevention
• Differentiation, commercialization and innovation in extensive products

During the 4 days that lasted the Conference, there were presentations such as those of Marc Castellnou, President of the Pau Costa Foundation and GRAF Bombers of the Generalitat de Catalunya, Judit Nadal, a pastor who talked about the livestock exploitation Pasturabosc and Ramats de Foc, between Many other guests. In addition, on the first day, September 25, the documentary “Under the woods” by Víctor Casas was screened in the Salas Truffaut.

On the 26th, Josep Roca, one of the best chefs in the world, gave a talk and a small wine tasting to the attendees of the Conference.

All these experiences had their final touch with a field trip to Agullana, where there was talk of infrastructure maintenance on forest fire risk management and silvopastoralism.
