|
| We support
restoring Aid-to-Fair Funds. |
|
| We encourage
more year-round use of the fairgrounds and we believe the state should
appropriate the funds necessary to support year-round use. |
|
| We favor the
ever popular events, tractor pulling and car racing, being held in
front of the grandstand. |
|
| We support the
Super Farmer Contest at the Missouri State Fair. |
|
| We favor an
increased and continued emphasis on agriculture at the State Fair with
areas designated to be used for agriculture displays only. |
|
| We favor an
increased effort to control alcohol abuse and alcohol use on the
fairgrounds during the State Fair. |
|
| We favor
increased and improved support of funding for State Fair facilities. |
|
| We favor
continuing to support the State Fair with general revenue funds. |
|
| We encourage a
display at the Missouri State Fair that would show various breeds of
livestock involved in animal agriculture, i.e. beef cattle, dairy
cattle, swine, sheep and equine. Currently, not all breeds are on the
fairgrounds at the same time. This would be a good tool to inform and
educate the general public about the different types of livestock
involved in Missouri agriculture. |
|
| We believe the
4-H and FFA livestock shows should remain separate during the State
Fair. |
