They managed to remove the 26-year-old from the mangled wreck, but by that point, he was already dead.
Geovani was a partner in an aerial spraying company and owned the agricultural aircraft in question.
He also reportedly worked as a commercial pilot.
The cause of the crash remains a mystery, as he was an experienced pilot with licences up to date.
Geovani lived in Ipiranga do Norte with his wife, Laryssa and two sons, aged four and one, as reported on Need to Know.
He dreamed of becoming an entrepreneur in the agricultural aviation sector, according to his work associates.
Cenipa, Brazil’s aviation accident investigation agency, is investigating the case.
Geovani was laid to rest in Ipiranga do Norte on Wednesday (10 April).
