Abstract

Through the analysis of different sources, it has been possible to obtain a wide range of information about the evolution of the silk crop of the País Valenciano (E. of Spain) during the XVIII century. The described tendency by the total production is moderately decreasing. But the most significative of all was the experience changes in its geographical distribution, which suffered a strong regression in the most important and productive areas that was only mildly offset by the increased production of the neighbouring areas. This development reflected a substantial change in the cultivation of the mulberry tree, which was becoming more and more secundary crop against the increasing rentability that was offered by other alternative products.
