TL;DR


Ecosystem Context

Mach Thuy Hoan is one of 18 independent experimental projects in the IP Experiment ecosystem created by Vu Truong Ca (A Ca).

Each project documents real-world experiments across health, agriculture, and ecological living systems.

The goal of this ecosystem is to build a long-term knowledge archive based on real-world data rather than theoretical models.

Field Log – BrainFarm Di Linh

Recent observations from active field experiment

2026-03-02

Soil moisture stable despite dry conditions

Water consumption approx. 6m³/day | No external irrigation required

2026-02-24

Rainwater successfully captured in underground reservoir

Gravity flow stable across contour channels

2026-02-18

Lotus pond oxygenation improved water clarity

Temperature reduced ~2°C around pond area

2026-02-10

El Niño dry spell continued – system holding well

Soil moisture at 65-70% field capacity at 30cm depth

2026-02-01

Monthly water audit completed

Reservoir level: 78% | Estimated remaining capacity: 180+ days


Core Principles

The Mach Thuy Hoan system follows four ecological principles:

  1. Capture rain where it falls – on-site rainwater harvesting
  2. Store water underground – to reduce evaporation loss
  3. Distribute water slowly – along contour lines using gravity
  4. Maintain stable soil moisture – instead of heavy irrigation cycles

Key Philosophy:

"Trees do not need more water.
Trees need stable moisture."

— A Ca, BrainFarm

System Structure (5 Components)

1. Low Heart (Underground Reservoir)

2. High Heart (Hill-top Reservoir)

3. Lungs (Lotus Pond)

4. Capillaries (Forest Channels)

5. Green Belt (Perimeter)


Quick Formulas

Underground reservoir = 1,500 m³ × Area (ha)
Hill-top reservoir    = 150 m³ × Area (ha)
Forest channels       = 10 lines × Area (ha)
Investment cost       = 250 million VND × Area (ha)
Drought days          = Reservoir volume ÷ 6 m³/day
    

Scientific Limitations

This system is currently based on field experiments in Central Highlands conditions.

Results may vary depending on:

Further validation in different regions is required.



Origin Story

I am Vu Truong Ca. Since 2006, I developed farms in Long An (0.72 ha), Dong Nai (0.13 ha), and Lam Dong (0.39 ha), including a 76.8 ha project in Da Teh, Lam Dong as Chairman of Kim Minh Investment Corporation.

During the El Niño drought of 2014–2016, I suffered devastating losses:

CropLoss
Gac fruit2.7 ha completely lost
Fruit trees0.6/1.2 ha severely damaged
Rubber trees~3/15 ha depleted

I learned a hard truth: "Having water is not the same as controlling water."

From these losses, Mach Thuy Hoan was born – to help farmers achieve water autonomy and sustainable harvests.
