Governor Parson: a state solution needed for foreign ag land ownership

Missouri’s governor says he would like to see foreign ag land ownership be addressed at the state level, not by the federal government. Mike Parson tells Brownfield it’s a delicate issue.

“I think it’s important the state legislature and farmers in our state get their voices heard and what’s important for the people in the state of Missouri is what we should be focused on.”

Casey Wasser, a senior policy director with Missouri Soybeans, says lawmakers have a big decision to make in the final weeks of the session: to put this into law or to ratify in the constitution and bring it up for a vote.
