After hard times in its ancient past and the Great Reclamation in the 19th century, Maremma undergoes a new era, transforming into a territory rich in development and agriculture. Beginning in the mid-19th century, despite the presence of a number of brigands who raged on horseback, Maremma experienced a period of agricultural prosperity.
Writer Carlo Pazzagli has recorded all of this in his work “On the History of Tuscan Agriculture in the 19th and 20th Centuries” (1975), for which he used land registries from 1929 as his primary font. The registry was done one year after the last historical land reclamation of Maremma.
