Agriculture

Agriculture Agriculture is the number one industry in our state and Missouri’s 9th District has more than 22,000 farms, covering more than 6.4 million acres of land. To put that in perspective, 72 percent of the total land area of our congressional district is farmland. As a farmer, I am proud to bring real-world experience and perspective to Congress. For the heartland to succeed in the global economy, we must lessen government regulation of American agriculture and encourage the expansion of markets for Missouri goods. I will continue work to ensure that the EPA and other federal agencies are not placing burdensome regulations that in any way threaten the livelihoods of our family farmers. Related Documents:
