Scrub was historically an essential part of the territory in north-western Iberian peninsula. It was part of reprodution strategies of family farms and rural communities. But these strategies went through an important change from agricultural and cattle raising functions, to consolidate like forest grow surfaces. Definitive crisis of the old traditional agrarian complex in Galicia was traumatic social and ecologically. Demographic process, peasant farms and agrarian economic integrate in agricultural food produce market meeting to scrub lands to neglect, that supposed thousand burn scrubs hectares. In eighties, social renewal uses and scrubs representations opened new horizons to these surfaces. Some circumstances converge to point towards a strong revalorisation of the scrub like multifunctional strategic resource, specially as regards to forested lands.
