Currently tourism for both recreational fishing and Pantanal exploration are strong economic factors. In the past the area was relatively self-sufficient and isolated from the rest of Brazil and the state of MG do Sul, but they would extract a local tea herb which was sold to Uruguay and Argentina. - Guest Wed, 14 Jun 2006 20:38:39 +0100 http://www.brazzil.com/home-mainmenu-1/164-may-2006/9608.html#comment-14257 fINE STORY. fINE WOMAN. - Guest Thu, 25 May 2006 18:40:11 +0100 http://www.brazzil.com/home-mainmenu-1/164-may-2006/9608.html#comment-14256 - Guest Thu, 25 May 2006 18:36:08 +0100 http://www.brazzil.com/home-mainmenu-1/164-may-2006/9608.html#comment-14246 The economy is based on Fornication and Fishing according to the article. - Guest Wed, 24 May 2006 16:58:29 +0100 http://www.brazzil.com/home-mainmenu-1/164-may-2006/9608.html#comment-13733 *WHAT is this little village\'s economy based on? - Guest Wed, 24 May 2006 06:59:11 +0100 http://www.brazzil.com/home-mainmenu-1/164-may-2006/9608.html#comment-13496 I want to know more about the indgenous tribe in the area. What do they do? Just hang out and chuck spears at people passing by? What kind of fish are in the river, besides the one mentioned? Are they exotic? The most important question, completely and bewilderingly neglected by the writer who\'s a business journalist, is this little village\'s economy based on? - Guest Wed, 24 May 2006 06:58:21 +0100
