I'm proud to call myself a family farmer. Our family continues to operate our corn and soy farm in North Missouri. So I know first-hand how difficult it can be to make your living from the land. Yet, America's farmers and agricultural sector are far and away the best in the world. Our bountiful harvests feed our countrymen and hundreds of millions elsewhere. Without our farmers, Americans from coast-to-coast would not enjoy their current high standard of living.

I have supported numerous pieces of legislation designed to help farmers compete in global markets, maintain their world-beating levels of productivity and recover from the natural disasters that Mother Nature throws at us from time to time. I will continue to fight for North Missouri's farmers in Congress.
