Spanish term or phrase: bajo formas
Además, estas relaciones debieron ser complejas y dinámicas, ya que los grandes propietarios romanos se interesaron por todo tipo de actividades, que organizaron ***bajo formas*** muy diversas (desde la producción de vino, el caso ejemplar de un producto asociado al progreso de la vida urbana, hasta la pastio villatica o la ganadería trashumante) y esto debía determinar sus necesidades de fuerza de trabajo o de actividades complementarias y las estrategias orientadas a satisfacer estas necesidades.

[organized] according to [widely diverse] criteria OR under ... categories.

Explanation:
Very often "forma" has to be translated creatively because "form" doesn't make much sense in English. From the sentence as a whole, it can be seen that "criteria" is much clearer.

If you're going to use "under," then "categories" would work.

Anything but "forms"!!
