The aim of this study was to characterize the swine farms located in the Valencian Region from the social and structural point of view. During three years (2005-2008) data from 264 swine producers were collected by means of a questionnaire to farmers. Each questionnaire contained information related to the legal system and characteristics of the farms, and farmer age and education. All the information was analyzed according to the type of production system and the province. The analysis showed that there is a tendency towards integration and that average age of farmers is increasing.
