Abstract: Plain M'sila which covers an area of 780 km2 is characterized by an arid climate with very diverse natural resources like agriculture such as cereals and tree crops or natural like steppe species example stippa tenacissima L., and Artimisia herba alba and a sheep herd size large which is around 130 heads. Unfortunately, this wealth is subject to various constraints that hamper its proper management which are orders of ecological, agronomic, economic and social. To overcome these limitations of remedies are recommended for each factor. From an ecological perspective, it is recommended to do some practical steps; such as, setting the ground on both sides of El-Ksob River, purification of polluted waters of the dam, installed a sewage system in the living spaces of the area North Western Basin Hodna and finally preserve apricot orchards avoiding intercropping and in the distance of planting and the installation of windbreaks. The agronomic factor, it is very strategic need to improve the genetic diversity of different crops by increasing the number of adapted varieties, cultivars multiply endangered, expand irrigated areas and rehabilitating old orchards and fields, modernize farming practices and install an effective drainage system. For the economic side, we need fertilizers pesticides and fertilizers are carried to the farmers and at decent prices. Socially, more interventions are ground to suggest as the opening track inside the orchards and fields, halt urbanization at the expense of cultivated areas, the problem of land and then encourage young people has practiced this noble profession.
