Fazenda Pirassununga Airport

The airport was a private facility serving a farm (a 'fazenda' in Portuguese). The closure was not due to a specific event like an accident or military conversion. The most probable reason is economic and practical disuse, which is common for private airstrips. This can happen when the property owner no longer operates an aircraft, the farm is sold, or the cost of maintaining a safe runway becomes prohibitive for its limited use.

The site is now abandoned as an aviation facility. Current satellite imagery clearly shows the outline of the former dirt runway, but it is completely overgrown with grass and vegetation, making it unusable for aircraft. The land has reverted to its primary purpose as part of the surrounding farmland, likely used for pasture.

The airport's significance was entirely local and private. It served as a 'pista de pouso' (landing strip) for the Fazenda Pirassununga. Its operations would have been typical for a remote agricultural property in Brazil, including:
1. **General Aviation:** Transporting the farm's owners, managers, and visitors.
2. **Agricultural Aviation:** Potentially serving as a base for crop-dusting aircraft (aviões agrícolas) to apply fertilizers and pesticides over large areas of farmland, a critical function for large-scale agriculture in the region.
Its ICAO code, BR-2129, is an unofficial identifier used by third-party databases to track small airfields and is not an official code assigned by Brazilian aviation authorities (ANAC).

There are no known public plans, discussions, or prospects for reopening Fazenda Pirassununga Airport. Reinstating the airstrip would require significant private investment from the current landowner to clear, grade, and certify the runway. Given its long period of disuse, a reopening is highly unlikely unless a new economic or logistical need for a private airstrip arises at that specific location.
