Rehabilitating Olive Trees in Aragón to Stem SPAIN's Rural Exodus

Rehabilitating Olive Trees in Aragón to Stem SPAIN's Rural Exodus | CIHEAM Press Review | Scoop.it

One of the most crit­i­cal issues fac­ing Spain is the ongo­ing rural exo­dus. About 95 per­cent of the country’s pop­u­la­tion lives on just 30 per­cent of the land, with most peo­ple liv­ing in Madrid and along the coast.
A 2019 gov­ern­ment report said 48 per­cent of all munic­i­pal­i­ties have fewer than 12.5 inhab­i­tants per square kilo­me­ter. Parts of Aragón and Extremadura, the fourth and fifth largest regions in Spain by land area, have pop­u­la­tion den­si­ties on par with those of Siberia – just two peo­ple per square kilo­me­ter.
