'''The Vohitrarivo farm is a 40ha land area next to the village of Vohitrarivo in the SAVA region in the northeast of Madagascar. Located in perhaps one of the cleanest regions on earth, the land has been used for small-scale farming without any use of artificial fertilisers, pesticides or fossil-fueled farming machinery throughout its existence. With a natural river running through the middle of the property, the land is especially rich in alluvial soil which receives seasonal deposits of fertile sediment providingideal providing ideal conditions for farming countless species of low-altitude tropical crops.'''
