The municipal Sedaví term borders on the Alfafar localities, New Place of the Crown and Valencia all of them of the province of Valencia.
Placed in the southern sector of the region. His term, narrow and elongated and his relief is still completely flat and covered by sediments of the quaternary epoch, in silting process in the oriental end of the term, occupied today by ricefields.
His average altitude is supported below 10 m. The climate is typically Mediterranean, with thermal averages that range between 10th and on the 25th of July.
His historical origin seems to be in the Moslem farmhouse named Beni-Cedaví that, after the Christian conquest, was donated by king Jaime I to the gentleman Octaviano in the year 1239. From the XVIth century until 1814 it was part of the dominion of the family Barreda.
His economy based traditionally on the horticultural cultivation and the rice, has suffered in the present century a deep transformation up to turning eminently in industrial, centred concerning the branch of the furniture and the wood. Dry land cultivation does not exist and the irrigation cultivation is distributed between the rice, the orange tree, the corn and the vegetables, which are those who occupy major extension. The cattle scarcely is represented by some heads of cattle estabulado, for the milk production.
The industry is the most important economic sector and key factor for the increase of the population based on the immigration of labor. The furniture is the specialty that gives him fame and at him there is employed more than one third of the active population. The production is realized in small workshops of handmade and familiar origin, extended to medium companies in the last years. It is exported to European countries, in addition to supplying to the national market.
