Abstract
RESUMEN: Contribución al estudio de la evolución de la rentabilidad de las explotaciones ganaderas trashumantes en la Corona de Castilla durante el sigloXVI, desde la perspectiva de la incidencia que sobre la misma tuvo la evolución del mercado lanero. El autor analiza una masa documental muy diversificada, fragmentaria y dispersa, referente a un ámbito geográfico concreto, el del partidomesteño soriano. Además de las informaciones disponibles sobre beneficios o pérdidas de alguna gran explotación, analiza en particular abundantes noticias sobre precios de lanas durante la segunda mitad del siglo XVI, poniéndolos en relación con otros indicios sobre la evolución de la rentabilidad del negocio de la cría de ganado trashumante. Concluye que, con la información disponible para la región soriana, no se puede admitir que el período de dificultades para la ganadería trashumante se iniciase antes de la década de 1570, pues la de 1560 fue todavía de notable prosperidad.
ABSTRACT: Contribution to the study of the evolution of the profitability of the transhumant sheeprearing enterprises in the Crown of Castile during the sixteenth century, from the point of view of the influence exercised upon it by the evolution of the wool market. The author annalyses a very diversified, fragmentary and dispersed group of sources referred to the region of Soria. Besides the available information about profits and losses of some transhumant sheeprearing enterprises, he takes into account the available information about wool prices during the second half of the sixteenth century, and he establishes some connexions between this information and other signs that inform about the evolution of the profitability of these enterprises. He arrives to the conclusion that, according to the information available for the region of Soria, we cannot admit that the period of economic difficulties for the transhumant sheeprearing enterprises started before the decade of 1570, because the decade of 1560 was still a very prosperous one for them.
