Registration For The 2015 Governor’s Conference On Agriculture Is Open
JEFFERSON CITY, MO.
The Missouri Governor’s Conference on Agriculture is the place where those involved in agriculture gather to build the state’s number one industry. We do this by providing an educational and entertaining lineup of sessions and events over a three-day period. Gathering together as an industry each year to discuss current and upcoming opportunities and challenges is critical to our continued success.
Discover the stories shared by Missouri farmers and ranchers: stories of tradition, opportunities and challenges on their farms. See innovative farmers working side-by-side to learn what has worked on the farm and what has not. Feast on great Missouri foods and beverages at the Taste of AgriMissouri Reception and enjoy entertainment by national country recording artist and Perryville, MO. Native, Chris Janson. This is the time we can put our heads together and get ready for another year of greatness.
