GeographyLocated in the Vão do Paranã statistical micro-region, Flores has boundaries with Buritis, Sítio d'Abadia, Vila Boa, Alvorada do Norte, Iaciara, Nova Roma, São João d'Aliança, Formosa and Alto Paraíso de Goiás. The distance to Goiânia is 438 km. Highway connections with Goiânia are made by BR-153 / Anápolis / GO-060 / Alexânia / Planaltina / Formosa / GO-020 / BR-030 / Vila Boa / GO-114.[1] The Rio Paranã supplies much of the water for irrigation of the crops and filling up of small dams for livestock raising. Other rivers of importance are: Macacos, Piripiri, Santa Maria, Corrente, Canabrava, Bonifácio, Gameleira and Macacão. The relief is varied with a mixture of mountains, plains, and uplands. The main climate is semi-humid hot tropical, with four to five dry months. The vegetation still shows traces of native tropical forest. Demographics
EconomyThe economy is still based on large ranch holdings. Cattle raising is the main occupation followed by swine, sheep and poultry raising. Cattle are sold in Formosa, Brasília, and São Paulo. Most of the big cattle ranchers as well as the planters are from the south of the country. They are either Gaúchos or Parananeses. Almost all of the cattle raised are Nelore. They raise cattle to fatten them and then they sell them in large auctions in Formosa. Other farmers from the south have planted irrigated rice, soybeans, and corn, but Flores is still known as cattle country. Economic Data

HistoryFlores began in 1838 as a district of the now extinct municipality of Forte. In 1907 the district was transferred to the municipality of Sítio d'Abadia. In 1953 the name was changed to Urutagua and finally in 1963 the name was changed again to Flores de Goiás and it became its own municipality.[4] See also
