Fireside Chat with Kurt Schaefer

from Digging In with Missouri Farm Bureau Hosted by Digging In with Missouri Farm Bureau

On this week’s Digging In, it’s a highlight from the MOFB Legislative Briefing. President Garrett Hawkins sits down with Kurt Schaefer, Director of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources. In this casual conversation the pair discuss a wide range of issues important to Missouri farmers and ranchers, including the upcoming vote to renew the Parks, Soils & Water sales tax. The one-tenth-of-one-percent tax has helped Missouri preserve more than 192 million tons of soil since its initial inception in 1984, and it continues to provide free access to our state parks and historic sites.
