With a natural river running through the middle of Malagasy farmers. Before then, it was unused. Although much grows including wild cropsthe property, major farming activity has not been active since about year 2000, having left much of the land to grow is especially rich in the way nature designs italluvial soil which receives seasonal deposits of fertile sediment providing ideal conditions for farming countless species of low-altitude tropical crops.'''

Crops and plants, some wild, include corn, sugarcane, pineapple, mango, lychee, coconut, banana, pepper, bamboo, breadfruit, vanilla, cassava, coffee, papaya, cocoa, chilli, cinnamon, wild cardamom, rice and more. In organic farming terminology of so-called companion-planting, this mixed planting situation provides a natural habitat for flora and fauna without the need of unnatural pesticides as single-crop farming methods typically practise elsewhere in the world.

The river Farariana runs through the land. There are no inhabited villages further upstream between the land area and the source of the river, making the water perfectly safe to drink. Downstream, Farariana joins the Tanambao river and leads into the Indian Ocean.

The land is family-owned by Pierre Ndrevelo (pictured above) who is a lecturer at the University of Antalaha. As he did not continue the family tradition of farming, the land is for sale. He hopes to find a buyer who will manage to property in a sustainable way that can contribute to the local community of Vohitrarivo where he grew up.
