Olive tree represents today the major tree concentration in Europe. Its great
expansion started at 19th Century caused by liberal agrarian reforms and, traditionally,
has been associated with agrarian modernization in Mediterranean basin due to the
growing integration of its production in domestic and foreign markets. This paper seeks
to review the causes and the origins its expansion introducing new methods derived
form environmental history and social history. We study local case studies which
historical sources allow us to profound in this subject with more detail than at
aggregate scale, starting at 1750 (when olive land was scarce) and finishing at 1930
(once consummated the firs great expansion known as “golden age”). The main
findings show the causes of the weak specialization before 19th Century; the
multifunctional character of traditional olive production; how its expansion was also
determined by ecological particularities of this crop and by its function on substitute
deficit products like woodfire or animal feed; and, finally, how small farming was behind
its expansion using olive orchards like a peasant productive strategy. [-]
