Mineiros
Mineiros, population 70,081, is a municipality in the southwest of the state of Goiás, Brazil. Mineiros is the westernmost city in Goiás and a great producer of cattle, soybeans, and corn.
Mineiros is located 430 km from the state capital, Goiânia, and is connected to the large town of Jataí by BR 364. Highway connections from Goiânia are made by BR-060 / Abadia de Goiás / Guapó / Indiara / Acreúna / Rio Verde / Jataí / GO-050 / BR-364. See Sepin
It is one of the largest municipalities in the state as well as one of the oldest. It is part of the IBGE statistical microregion of Sudoeste de Goiás.
The name "Mineiros" comes from the first explorers who were from Minas Gerais. They settled in the region around 1873, building huts, ranch houses, churches, and chapels for saints.
One of these settlers, who came to be known as "João Mineiro", because of his origin in Minas Gerais, was supposedly the first European to settle on the banks of a stream, a tributary of the Verdinho River, which soon was called the stream of the "Mineiro". This stream is the Mineiros stream today.
The first official name was "Mineiro" when the settlement became a "vila" (old name for municipality) in 1905. In 1933 the name was changed to Mineiros as it appears today.
The population density was 5.08 inhabitants/km2 in 2007. The population has more than doubled since 1980, when it was 21,690. While the urban area has increased dramatically, the rural area has lost little population in the last 25 years,[when?] having 4,506 inhabitants in 2007. The population increased by 2.12% between 2000 and 2007.
Considered[by whom?] one of the most prosperous regions of Brazilian agribusiness[citation needed], the municipality of Mineiros is a great producer of soybeans, corn, sorghum and cotton, as well as beef and dairy cattle. It is the third largest producer of grains in the state.[citation needed] In an axis of 100km from the city there are fields producing more than 1 million tons a year of soybeans and sorghum.[citation needed] Because of this, the city has large grain storage facilities.
