'''The Vohitrarivo farmland farm is a 40ha land area next to the village of Vohitrarivo in the SAVA region of north east in the northeast of Madagascar. Located in perhaps one of the cleanest parts of the worldregions on earth, the land area has been sparsely used for small-scale farming, always without use of artificial fertilisers, pesticides or fossil-fueled farming methods machinery throughout its historyexistence. The With a natural river running through the middle of the property, the land itself and its surrounding terroir is 100% naturally biologicalespecially rich in alluvial soil which receives seasonal deposits of fertile sediment providing ideal conditions for farming countless species of low-altitude tropical crops.'''

There are no inhabited villages further upstream between the land area and the source of the river, making the water water perfectly safe to drink.
