Formoso is a Brazilian municipality located in the northeast of Minas Gerais, near the convergence of the states of Minas Gerais, Goiás, and Bahia. Minas Gerais features a rugged topography that includes some of Brazil’s highest peaks and hosts the sources of major national rivers, granting it a strategic role in water resources. Its tropical climate ranges from cool and humid in the south to semi-arid in the north, supporting rich biodiversity in both fauna and flora across various biomes. The state is a leader in agricultural production, excelling in coffee, sugarcane, and soybeans. In 2020, it accounted for 74% of the national Coffea arabica production and, in 2017, represented 54.3% of Brazil’s total coffee output.
With its blend of natural resources, diverse climate, and significant agricultural output, Minas Gerais is a cornerstone for Brazil’s economy and biodiversity.
