He asked: "Why don't we bet more on the maintenance of livestock activity to fight fires?"
Alejandro, who owns 80 cows in the mountain town Cercedilla near Madrid, said: "A dry pasture for fire is like alcohol, literally gunpowder."
Alejandro said: "It already happened in Ávila and it was terrible because there are not enough livestock farmers and fire has it much easier."
He explained mountain heights are being lost to grazing because the European Union does not provide aid to put the cows there, causing a loss of pasture.
The farmer claimed fallen trees are gaining prominence in the pine forest of Cercedilla.
But he argued grazing higher mountain areas around Cercedilla would help livestock farmers save on feed.
Provacuno pointed to Spanish government data on the extent of the damage caused by fires in forests which show 84,300 hectares have been affected by fires.
Of this total, 66,783 were in forests and more than 17,400 in woodland areas.
The number of fires which spread over an area exceeding 500 hectares, totalled 19, of which 15 were in summer and four in winter.
Mr López demanded support for livestock farmers who he said are "vital to the conservation of the natural environment and the species that inhabit it".
Research has shown that changes in climate are creating warmer and drier conditions.
More droughts and a longer fire season are increasing the risk of wildfires.
The US Forest Service recently called a temporary, nationwide halt to controlled burns meant to reduce fire risk.
It came after the agency accidentally started part of New Mexico's largest ever wildfire.
A USFS managed burn near Las Vegas, New Mexico, went ahead despite forecasts for high winds. It went out of control on April 6.
The fire, the largest in the southwestern state's recorded history, merged with another wind-driven blaze to form the Hermits Peak Calf Canyon fire.
It torched 298,060 acres (121,000 hectares), overtaking the previous record blaze, 2012's Whitewater Baldy fire.
