There are now wide fertile areas, rich borax mines, and good hunting grounds; cattle and a noted breed of horses are raised. Cities include Piombino (a port) and Grosetto (an inland agricultural center).Maremmaa zone of low-lying, formerly marsh-ridden areas on the western coast of the Italian peninsula, extending intermittently from the mouth of the Arno River to the Bay of Naples.
