The Dehesas are found in the southern p0art of Spain and Portugal, placed in ham production areas. Oak trees have been growing for centuries, as result we obtain a unique ecosystem overshadowed by trees. A unique area with Mediterranean climate known as “Dehesas”.
The Dehesas are basically made of layer trees, crops, grass lands and wildlife, this area is covered with Holm oak and Cork oak trees which produce the acorn which is of major importance for the Iberian Pig.
The Dehesas are mostly used as grazing livestock although it is also used for planting crops and other types of cereals.
