The Dunklin County Farm Bureau is proud to announce that Representative Kent Hampton is a recipient of the 2014 Farm Bureau Friend of Agriculture Award.

"This award is in recognition of Representative Hampton's voting record on issues of importance to agriculture, his working relationship with farmers in the Dunklin County Farm Bureau, and his willingness to take a leadership role in representing Missouri agriculture," stated Barry Bean, vice president of Dunklin County Farm Bureau. Bean added "Hampton has been particularly active in preserving our water and property rights in Southeast Missouri and protecting essential local services our Dunklin County residents rely on."
