The new chairman of the Missouri Farmers Care Coalition says there remains a need to fight extremist groups that go after production agriculture, like the Humane Society of the U.S., “They continue to work at the county level, any time there’s an issue with an opportunity for new agriculture to get put in the ground, for instance, new hog confinement facilities or poultry facilities.”
Gary Marshall is CEO of the Missouri Corn Growers
Association and has taken on the role as coalition chairman, “It’s our job with
Missouri Farmers Care to help bring a little bit of common sense and truth into
this discussion and so it’ll be my honor to lead these folks in this coming
year as we seek to do that.”
Marshall says 58 Missouri counties have been declared “Agri-Ready”
by the Missouri Farmers Care Coalition and they anticipate more this year.
