agriculture

According to Forbes' list of the richest people in each state in 2024, Iowa's top earner is a self-made billionaire from the world of agriculture!

I predict that this new data claiming that Illinois farmland is more valuable than what you'll find in Missouri will start more than one argument. I have friends on both sides of the issue, but there is some math involved that shows the claim just might be true.

If you need proof that agriculture is still the king of Illinois, consider this exhibit A. If you think the most expensive land in Illinois is a mansion, guess again. It's a more than 248 acre farm in Hebron.

It's no secret that most of Missouri has been suffering through a horrible drought for the past several years, but how much rainfall would it take for the state to be back to average? The actual number is truly staggering.

In case you didn't know, there's already a big problem with feral pigs in Missouri. A new report says that an even larger version of these swine is headed toward Missouri if something isn't done to stop them.

I am going to ask a question that only one man truly knows the answer to. Is Bill Gates really buying up Missouri farmland to 'save the planet'? There's a new book that claims there's proof this effort is real and happening now.

You can say what you want about Illinois, but do not doubt the Land of Lincoln is the king of pumpkins and there really isn't a close second.

Blame on it on the rain, literally. Experts are warning of high prices for corn and corn products.
