But then again he also supports ethanol and wind energy so I guess it’s all about who pays for his show and not about being a true conservative. We know the Farm Bureau’s position on everything hunting and it’s not good for the ordinary hunter.- - - Updated - - -We as the public should be able to hunt the public ROWs but that is a concession the public has given to landowners. We have also given them a concession that their farm residences are not taxed fully like our residences in cities are. Why should I have to pay more taxes on my 300k house than a farmer has to pay on 300k worth of land? Why can’t this be equal? Why can’t non profit groups buy land so we can use it for hunting? If this bill passes there will be a lot of support for sportsmen groups to be able to buy up land for their members to access. The Farm Bureau not only doesn’t want non profits to take land out of production, but they want the state to sell all of the state owned land and further limit access to land. There is a reason why people of all political parties see the need to protect our public lands from being sold to the highest bidder. It’s our only guaranteed access we have left.</blockquote>
