Abstract

The rural landscape of Cilento was represented by centuries of agricultural production. But not only. While, on the rural landscape and environmental quality should the current configuration choices and influences coming from within the agricultural sector, have been pressured and other external pressures (most notably urbanization) that have often put in jeopardy the very existence of the rural system based on the farm. In this narrow interests and environmental landscape have slipped in a subordinate position, they are not considered carriers (at least in a direct and fast) to benefit the farm and the land, the latter often "forgotten" or not considered properly in existing policies territorial development. The strong feature of the agricultural province recalls the centrality of the multifunctional role of agriculture and its players - the farmers - who, by the classical conception of "producers" of goods, become interpreters of the processes of preserving, through the actions of management and of care. These operations, in particular geographical areas and hilly mountain even more, are valuable contributions to the functions of supervision and protection of territory.
