This paper analyses factors linked to the level of economic development that influenced the rate at which part of the Valencian agriculture transformed in line with the incentives generated by the increase in demand. It focuses on the expansion of orange tree operations during the last third of the 19th century where production options are typified according to their economic results, the risk, relationship with the market, and the production resource needs. The impact of these factors depended on the size of the individual`s property. The results thus suggest that smaller landowners preferred crops that were more labour intensive that helped their auto-reproduction whereas the larger ones were more inclined towards citrus crops, which were more capital intensive and more demanding in resources.
