<abstract><p>In Benin in general and especially in the district of Toffo Atlantic department, traditional systems of agricultural production don’t permit farming to conform itself to land pressure, market demand, to minimize poverty, to satisfy population food needs and to preserve environment.

The aim of this study is to analyze agro pastoral diversity importance of palm oil agro systems in the district of Toffo.
