Nova Alvorada do Sul, Agricultural municipality in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil.
Description
Nova Alvorada do Sul is a municipality in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil's Central-West region, built across flat to gently rolling farmland. The town serves as a hub for agricultural processing and rural communities scattered across the region.
History
The settlement began as a transportation junction called Entroncamento before gaining independence as a municipality in 1991 when it separated from Rio Brilhante district. This separation marked its transformation into a distinct administrative center.
Culture
The town centers around sugar cane farming and ethanol production, which shape how people use the land and organize their work. Local identity is tied closely to these agricultural and industrial activities.
Practical
The town sits between two regional airports, Dourados and Campo Grande, each roughly an hour's drive away. Visitors arriving should expect rural roads and plan travel time accordingly from these hubs.
