Place in Diana, Madagascar From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ambodimanga (or Ambodimanga Ramena) is a municipality (French: commune, Malagasy: kaominina) in Madagascar. It belongs to the district of Ambanja, which is a part of Diana Region. According to 2001 census the population of Ambodimanga was 5,729.[2]
Only primary schooling is available in town. The majority 99.5% of the population are farmers. The most important crop is coffee, while other important products are cocoa, beans and rice. Services provide employment for 0.5% of the population.[2]
Ambodimanga is situated at the Ramena River,[3] at its outlet to the Sambirano River. The valley of the Sambirano is the main cocoa producing area of Madagascar. 60% or 7500 to 10 000 ton yearly provide from this area. There is an unpaved piste from Ambanja to Marovato, via Benavony, Ambodimanga Ramena, Bemaneviky Ouest, Maevatanana that is hardly practicable.[4] Most of the exported cocoa is therefore transported with boats on the Sambirano River.
