The A\u00f1ana salt workers reacted by trying to reduce costs. This led to the introduction of new materials, such as cement, that no longer required the permanent maintenance that had been performed traditionally. <\/p><p>This broke one of the basic principles of the process: the use of reusable materials, which had been the basis for the survival of Valle Salado for millennia. There was also an increase in the number of salt-pans, which now occupied a total area that largely exceeded the limit of sustainability. As expected, once the know-how of the salt workers and the maintenance tasks were abandoned, the situation and state of the valley began to deteriorate.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b892092 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b892092\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vallesalado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/historia-06.webp\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4891\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vallesalado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/historia-06.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.vallesalado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/historia-06-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.vallesalado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/historia-06-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.vallesalado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/historia-06-600x450.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9f52161 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9f52161\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>However, Valle Salado stands out for its resilience, its ability to absorb negative impacts, to change, introduce innovations and recover its existence based on knowledge, traditions and respect for ecology.<\/p><p>Proof of this is that, in the late twentieth century, a complicated project was launched headed by the <a href=\"http:\/\/vallesalado.com\/pagina.php?id_p=130&amp;noadmin=1\">Valle Salado de A\u00f1ana Foundation<\/a>, that integrated the Community of Heirs of the salt works and the most important institutions in the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country.<\/p><p>This non-profit institution is now in charge of recovering and enhancing Valle Salado, looking back to the past and recovering the basic principles that have governed its history over millennia.
