TESTIMONIAL:

"I met up with Kory at the airport in Cuiaba, got in the shuttle van, and the trip began (or as Kory says, 'Welcome to the Jungle'). Along the way you can notice the significant developments being made in Lucas do Rio Verde, in comparison to the other neighboring towns. After the shuttle and a good intro history lesson on the area by Kory, we arrived in Lucas do Rio Verde. 

Still very new to this town (Lucas) I didn't know what was driving so much of the development, and was eager to find out. Well, if there is any gringo that can school you on what was and is currently making this town 'tick', it's Kory Melby. An invaluable resource to foreigners, Kory introduced me to farmers, showed me farmland and their operations, basically all the ins and outs of the town. Oh, and of course, a great help on translating.

My tour was during 'Novemberfest' a Brazilian rendition of Oktoberfest, so it gave the tour an extra breath of excitement. 

If you're a interested or a bit curious in the way agriculture is progressing down in Brazil, I highly recommend going through Kory Melby. He's Americas 'Man on the Ground' over there in the big country of Brazil, and on top of that, I'm sure you'll have a great time touring with Kory and his people."
