The Atchison County Farm Bureau is proud to announce that Representative Allen Andrews is a recipient of the 2020 Farm Bureau Friend of Agriculture Award.

“This award is in recognition of Representative Andrews’ voting record on issues of importance to agriculture, his working relationship with farmers in the Atchison County Farm Bureau, and his willingness to take a leadership role in representing Missouri agriculture,” stated Matt Schlueter, president of Atchison County Farm Bureau.

The Farm Bureau Friend of Agriculture program was initiated in 1996 and is designed to give appropriate recognition to legislators serving in the Missouri House of Representatives who are especially supportive of agriculture.
