The objective of the research was to estimate the income in a cacao plantation system from replacing dead shade trees and pepper trees predict the behavior of cacao agroecosystem enrichment with species of high commercial value. The research was conducted on the premises Comet and La Ceiba located in the city of Comalcalco, Tabasco. At El Cometa, the amount of pepper trees in each diameter at breast height, total height, the clean shaft was measured and the amount of production per tree was recorded was recorded. In addition, the latest crop production obtained for cocoa was recorded. In the second place, La Ceiba, the amount of forest trees associated with cocoa agroforestry system was recorded also. For each tree DBH, total height and the clean shaft was measured. With that he pulled the basal area per individual, and then, through a formula to get the total trade volume (cc) of each species. calculated the commercial volume (m3r) the price of each species to be placed on the market was investigated. Cedrela odorata (L.) Gaertn, Swietenia macrophylla King and Ceiba pentandra (L.) Gaertn., These species recorded better value in the market of national and international wood.
