Chlef Province spans across 4,795 square kilometers of land, containing thirteen administrative districts and multiple municipalities between the Mediterranean coast and inland territories.

The province underwent several administrative changes since Algeria's independence in 1962, transforming from El Asnam to its current designation as Chlef Province.

The provincial districts maintain traditional agricultural practices passed through generations, with local communities specializing in olive cultivation and grape production.

The Mediterranean climate of Chlef Province enables year-round farming activities, while the elevation of 195 meters provides favorable conditions for diverse crop growth.
