missourians like edmund babler, peter bennett and leo drey; annie van meter, and ted and pat jones. even in these lean times, we have a responsibility to be good stewards of these treasures, and preserve them for future generations. my parks youth corps will learn to be good stewards of the land from the ground up: picking up trash, cutting brush, and building trails. they'll also be outdoor ambassadors in my effort to reverse a 10-year decline in the number of visitors to our beautiful, affordable state parks. more visitors will also pump more money into our tourism industry. for families who love the outdoors, there's just no better deal around. now we've got to spread the word: if you like to kayak or fish, bird-watch or mountain bike, come to missouri first. missouri's land has always been the foundation of our economy. our farmers have fed the nation, and they can feed a hungry world. in a global marketplace, the demand for missouri agricultural products is primed to expand exponentially. we've got to sell globally, and buy locally. this year, we'll sell a record amount of corn
