Farmers often hesitate to develop Functional Agrobiodiversity on their farm, for they cannot
measure the return on investment. The method proposed here could help them asses-sing
beneficials population dynamics, according to cultural and biodiversity practices, therefore
motivating them in considering FAB in their plot, and limit chemical use.
