Imagine A Piece Of Land So Vast That It Could Swallow Ten Entire Countries. It Sounds Like Science Fiction, Right? But In The Heart Of Brazil, This Reality Materializes In A Farm Whose Size Challenges Understanding And Awakens Curiosity Even Among The Most Skeptical.
Although The Image Of A Rural Property Of This Size May Seem Legendary, It Exists And Is Located In São Miguel Do Araguaia, In The State Of Goiás. Fazenda Nova Piratininga Is More Than Just A Simple Rural Property.
With 135 Thousand Hectares Connected In A Single Registration, It Competes For The Title Of The Largest Farm In Brazil.
To Give An Idea Of Its Size, All 10 Smallest Countries In The World Together Could Comfortably Fit Within Its Borders.

50 viaducts, 4 tunnels, 28 bridges, and 40 kilometers of bike paths: BR-262 in Espírito Santo will receive 8.6 billion reais for the largest engineering project in the state’s history, inspired by the Immigrant Highway in São Paulo.

They said no to 26 million dollars and would do it all over again: mother and daughter from Kentucky reject a million-dollar offer from a mysterious company that wants to build the largest data center in the state on more than 2,000 acres of rural land.

Brazil produces too much clean energy and doesn’t know what to do with it: over 20% of solar and wind capacity was wasted in 2025 while investors flee and 509 renewable generation projects were abandoned in the last year.

While corn requires rain and is expensive, sorghum produces almost the same volume per hectare at a cost up to 80% lower and uses less water, and it is revolutionizing dairy farming in the Triângulo Mineiro, where producers save hundreds of reais per hectare.
According To The Channel Fatos Rurais, Fazenda Nova Piratininga Was Purchased In December 2010 By Three Entrepreneurs From Goiás, Including João Alves De Queiroz Filho, Controller Of Grupo Hypermarcas.
At The Time, The Transaction Value Was Around R$ 310 Million, An Amount That Seems Modest Considering The R$ 30 Billion The Property Has Been Valued According To The AGFeed Website.
Cutting-Edge Livestock Farming And Robust Infrastructure
Nova Piratininga Does Not Stand Out Just For Its Size. The Farm Is A Reference In High-Quality Livestock Farming, Housing 105 Thousand Head Of Nelore Cattle, Known For Their Robustness And Adaptability.
The Farm’s Infrastructure Is Equally Impressive, With 970 Km Of Dirt Roads, Enough To Travel From São Paulo To Rio De Janeiro More Than Twice.
According To Fatos Rurais, The Property Also Has A Water Storage Capacity Of 10.6 Million Liters, Distributed Across 10 Reservoirs, Essential For Herd Maintenance And Daily Operations.
But It Is Not Just The Cattle That Receive Attention At Nova Piratininga. The Farm Is Practically A Town, With Housing For 600 People, Including Houses, A School, Workshop, Airport, Churches, And Even A Dental Office.
The Presence Of These Social Structures Demonstrates The Owners’ Commitment To Providing A Quality Life For Employees And Their Families.
The Management Challenge And Plans For The Future
When The New Owners Took Over The Farm In 2010, The Scenario Was Challenging.
The Herd Of About 90 Thousand Animals, Of Which 60 Thousand Were Reproductive Females, Presented A Low Birth And Weaning Rate, Far Below National Standards.
According To Fatos Rurais, Nova Piratininga Entered Into A Partnership With Fazenda Barreiro Grande, From Renowned Breeder Adir Do Carmo Leonel, To Improve The Genetic Quality Of The Herd.
The Project Aims To Achieve 100 Thousand Births Annually Through Artificial Insemination, Raising The Standard Of The Animals Produced On The Farm.
The Farm’s Management Also Underwent A Deep Transformation.
Igor Nogueira Alves De Melo, One Of The Partners And Property Manager, Brought His Experience And Training To Implement A Governance Plan That Covers Everything From Herd Management To Improving Working Conditions.
According To The Channel Fatos Rurais, 250 Trough Houses And 20 Rest Areas For Cowhands Were Built, Aiming To Double The Herd And Further Improve The Existing Infrastructure.
Competition And Controversies: The Battle For The Title Of Largest Farm
Although Nova Piratininga Is A Strong Contender For The Title Of Largest Farm In Brazil, It Faces Intense Competition.
Fazenda Roncador, Located In Mato Grosso And Covering 152 Thousand Hectares, Is Often Cited As The Largest.
However, There Are Controversies Regarding The Property’s Registration Under A Single Title, Which Is One Of The Criteria For Classification.
According To Fatos Rurais, Fazenda Roncador Belongs To The Penido Family And Has Almost 50 Years Of History, While Nova Piratininga, With Its 14 Years, Has Already Achieved A Level Of Efficiency And Productivity That Puts It In The Race For The Top.
The Future Of Nova Piratininga: Expansion Or Sale?
The Grandeur Of Nova Piratininga Has Not Gone Unnoticed In The Market. In Recent Years, Investment Funds Have Expressed Interest In Acquiring The Farm, Attracted By Its Growth Potential.
However, Farm Managers Assure That The Property Is Not For Sale. The Owners’ Focus Is To Continue Investing In Sustainable Livestock Farming And Generate Profit In The Coming Years.
According To Fatos Rurais, The Partners Meet Regularly To Discuss The Status Of Operations And Outline Strategies For The Future.
Essa tá muito longe de ser a maior fazenda do brasil!
Só a fazenda xingu no estado da Bahia no município de são Desidério tem 160 mil hectares…
Sugiro ao jornalista que faça a correção do valor divulgado como avaliação da área.
O áudio do vídeo dá o preço mais próximo da realidade, considerando o valor do hectare de uma área bem valorizada na região, ou seja, em torno de R$ 4 bilhões de reais.
Dá tempo de corrigir
Coisa de estagiário ou matéria paga pelos donos,, primeiro esta fazenda nunca foi a maior do brasil. Somente a maior no Goias. E também não chega nem a 15% do valor citado. Por favor vão se entender um pouco mais sobre fazendas e seus valores. Você são por demais sem noções!!!
Eu moro em S. Miguel do Araguaia há 60 anos sr Jota Santos. O quê vc entende d propriedade ser maior ou menor? A NP na vdd são 203.000 ha. 135.000 em Go e 68.000 no TO. Mas o Sr Marcelo comprou 135.000 uma matrícula. A roncador são dezenas de propriedades o q a faz ser menor que a NP. A Agro Santa Barbara no Pará, são quase 300.000 ha. Mas são várias fazendas no mesmo CNPJ. A NP realmente não chega a esse valor. O valor estipulado seria pq o Sr Marcelo não a venderia nem por esse preço nem por preço algum por mais que seja tentador. Conheço a fazenda desde dr Wagner Canedo dono da Vasp. Acredita-se que esses 68.000 ha seja dele em sigilo da Receita Federal e etc. Então sr Jota Santos, a maior fazenda do Brasil realmente é a NP. Pois a Roncador da família Penido De La Vecchia está cheia de matrículas de Preservação Ambiental. Onde se aproveita 50% do montante que a empresa SLC maior plantadora de soja do país arrenda toda área fértil da Roncador. Enqto a fzd NP aproveita 80% em tripla aptidão. ****, soja, peixe pirarucu, onde estão instalando um frigorífico para fabricação de bacalhau. O maior lago natural do Brasil em criação do peixe, 60 hectares. E além da melhor infraestrutura do Brasil. o que vc pensar, lá vc acha. Abraço
