MO Senate to hear ag land ownership bills

Missouri’s Senate Agriculture Committee will review three foreign ag land ownership bills on Tuesday. Missouri Soybean Association’s Casey Wasser says the organization has no set position on foreign ag land ownership, because it’s a complex issue.

“While on face value, you’d think preventing foreign ownership sounds good, but we want to make sure we encourage investment. We want to make sure we’re not de-valuing land maybe a farmer wants to sell,” says Wasser.
