Description
Summary:This article studies how in the kingdom of Nueva Galicia the breeding of cattle was developed intensively during the seventeenth century, wich allowed it to easily cover domestic consumption demand and orient its surpluses to other markets in New Spain. Stresses with quantitative data the economic relevance acquired by the export of cattle to the neogallego kingdom. In contrast, it analyzes the small rearing of small livestock in that jurisdiction but how well stocked these animals were thanks to the arrival of numerous herds at their border limits where they were acquired and introduced for consumption in the main cities and real mines.
