History
The Municipality of Rodrigues Alves-Acre, had its origin from a colony of fishermen and former rubber tappers. Located on the banks of the Juruá and Paraná dos Mouras rivers, it has 78% of its population in the countryside, whose main economic activity is the production of flour. However, the low productivity verified over the years, the low prices of agricultural products and fish offered to the consumer market, allied to the precarious flow and storage system of the production, makes the system not able to assure the producer in his rural and riverside properties, resulting in an increase in rural exodus.

Elevated to the category of municipality with the name of Rodrigues Alves, in 1992.
