Itaúna's air quality reflects the Minas Gerais western highlands at 790 metres, with vehicle emissions from the MG-050 and surrounding steel pipe manufacturing and agribusiness operations contributing local sources. The elevated Serra da Canastra foothills position aids background dispersal, while dry season burning from surrounding Minas Gerais agricultural land contributes seasonal PM2.5 variation throughout the year.
