Mutunópolis

The settlement extends across 869 square kilometers of land at an elevation of 413 meters in the central-western region of Brazil.

Three pioneers, including João Gonçalves Pacheco, established the initial settlement in 1950 while searching for fertile agricultural lands in the region.

The name combines the Tupi word 'mutum', referring to a local bird species, with the Greek term 'polis', creating 'city of mutums'.

The municipality maintains a hospital with 19 beds, five medical clinics, and six educational institutions serving the local population of 3,849 residents.

The agricultural sector of Mutunópolis encompasses 512 farms spread across 1,840 hectares, producing rice, corn, manioc, bananas, and soybeans.
