Farmers change to Arable farming- still does not meet population demand so spain has to import from N. Europe in exchange for fish and wool.
                                                                            1. Large parts of Spain cannot be farmed- to arid, high above sea level, fear of piracy.

                                                                                  1. Heavy toll on roads/bridges/rivers stifles internal trade
