The study examines the significant impact of human activities on the Protected Areas, particularly the classified forest of Agoua in Benin, amidst rising energy demands and population growth. Findings reveal that agriculture is the primary driver of biodiversity degradation, accounting for 70% of the impact, followed by wood cutting. Over two decades, various plant formations have diminished in size, leading to habitat loss and a decline in species diversity, while certain land uses like plantations and fallow lands have increased.
