In Spain, the livestock sector is of vital importance to the economy, with more than 281,000 farms distributed across the country. By autonomous communities, Castilla y León, Andalusia, Extremadura, Galicia, the Basque Country, and Navarre stand out as the main regions.

Spain is one of the leading European producers of meat in the sectors of pork, beef, and chicken. Also, in the field of milk production, both for direct consumption and for the production of cheeses and other dairy derivatives, or milk.

In recent years, many farms have adopted new technologies and sustainable practices to adapt to the new market demands, as a result of changes in consumers' eating habits. Since the pandemic, consumers have shown a greater interest in the origin of the products they consume. Farms, aware of these changes, are adapting to these new needs to offer the products in demand.

This modernization and sustainability of farms have increased the interest in acquiring farms.

In the market, you can find farms for sale, especially for chicken farming. However, there are also properties available for the exploitation of other types of livestock, such as pigs, rabbits, cows, sheep, and chickens.

Each type of farm is located in a specific geographical area of Spain, according to the climatic conditions and livestock traditions of each region.

For example, pig farming is predominant in Extremadura and Andalusia, while cattle farming is common in Galicia, Castilla y León, and Cantabria. Sheep farming is mainly found in Castilla-La Mancha and Aragón, and poultry farming is located in Castilla-La Mancha and Catalonia.

The value of farms for sale is determined by considering factors such as the type of livestock, location, farm size, and existing infrastructures.

A farm can have a higher value if it is located in a geographical area known for the type of livestock to be raised. The number of hectares and heads of livestock that can be accommodated on the farm will also determine the price. Additionally, if the property has infrastructures such as barns or chicken coops, the price may increase further.

Generally, the sale of farms takes about two years, but this period can be extended or reduced depending on the type of livestock, the type of production, or the location of the farm.

Each type of livestock (bovine, porcine, ovine, equine, poultry...) and production has a different profitability, depending on the demand for each of the livestock products in the market (meat, milk, eggs, leather, wool, etc.).
