El tramo inferior de la cuenca del Guiniguada se caracteriza por la extensión y singularidad de los espacios de cultivo en terrazas. En este trabajo se describen las principales características geoecológicas y antrópicas de estas terrazas, con especial referencia al grado de deterioro de sus muros. El 40% de las unidades de terrazas tiene un grado de deterioro medio y alto. Se concluye que las pendiente, las forma de la ladera y litología, entre los parámetros ecológicos, y los uso y la edad transcurrida desde el abandono, entre los de carácter socio-económico, son los factores que condicionan, en distinta medida, el grado de conservación de las terrazas agrícolas.
The low section of the Guiniguada basin is characterized by the extension and singularity of the spaces of culture in terraces. In this paper the principal geologic and anthropic characteristics of the above mentioned terraces are described, with special reference to the degree of deterioration of their walls. 40 % of the units of terraces has a degree of middle and high deterioration. The paper concludes that the slopes, the forms of the hillside and litology, among the ecological parameters, and the use and the age passed from the abandon, among the socio-economic parameters, are the factors that determine, in different degrees, the status of conservation of the agricultural terraces.
