Resumen
[ES] El desconocimiento de la capacidad de carga ganadera de un territorio y en especial de
una finca dedicada al ganado resulta un verdadero problema tanto económico como
medioambiental, ya que surgen problemas como la erosión, la pérdida de biodiversidad, y mayores
desembolsos económicos a la hora de alimentar al ganado.
En este caso hemos realizado el estudio de la capacidad de carga ganadera en una finca
situada en Campillo de Arenas, provincia de Jaén, dedicada en el pasado a la alimentación del
ganado ovino, caprino, bovino y equino.
El método utilizado para la toma de datos en campo ha sido mediante transectos lineales
con el método Point Quadrat Modificado, Passera et al. (1983). Y el método utilizado para el cálculo
de la carga ganadera ha sido la metodología del cálculo del valor pastoral de Daget y Poissonet
(1979) utilizando el índice de calidad específica de cada taxón (Is) y la contribución específica (Cs).
Mediante la aplicación de este método, llegamos a la conclusión de que en dicha finca de
una hectárea se podrá alimentar a lo sumo, y en primavera, 0.1 Unidades de Ganado Mayor
(UGM), o lo que es lo mismo, 0.8 Unidades de Ganado Ovino (UGO).
[EN] The land of the knowledge of the stocking capacity of a territory and in particular of a land dedicated to livestock is a real economic and environmental problem, since problems such as erosion, loss of biodiversity, and increased economic outlays when feeding livestock. In this case we have carried out the study of the stocking capacity on a land located in Campillo de Arenas, province of Jaén, dedicated in the past to the feeding of sheep, goats, cattle and horses. The method used for data collection in the field has been through linear transects with the Modified Point Quadrat method, Passera et al. (1983). And the method used for the calculation of the stocking density has been the methodology of the calculation of the pastoral value of Daget and Poissonet (1979) using the specific quality index of each taxon (Is) and the specific contribution (Cs). By applying this method, we conclude that in this farm of one hectare can be fed at most, and in spring, 0.1 Units of Livestock (UGM), or what is the same, 0.8 Units of Sheep (UGO).
