It depends whether you want pasture or grain production or something else.Missouri doesnt have as big of mountains as Kentucky but it has some if thats what you like.Thats southwest of St Louis all the way to Arkansas,west to Jefferson City and South to Southwest City.Then north of that you have bluffs and hills close to the rivers and all along the east side by the Mississippi.I dont know what kind of land Kentucky has for grain,but there is about any kind of land in Missouri.Lots of it is good for pasture,or has trees on it,but there is some real good farmland scattered around in it.Its not Illinois or Iowa but there is black dirt in Missouri and there is rocky dirt.Most of it is high priced.My suggestion would be up around St Joseph,maybe down by Sedalia, maybe by Springfield on the north or west side to clear over by Joplin even eastern Oklahoma.There are lots of other places too.You might want to come over here and look around a while to see what suits you.There is some for sale,but where I am its sky high.Some went last fall for over 4000 an acre,but it was good cropland by Malta Bend.Malta Bend has over 200 bushel to the acre corn with no fertilizer or very little,but its river bottom land.I think most of the good land is flat if you want it for grain.Coming from Kentucky you wont much notice a difference.I think people might be a little poorer than in Kentucky but it depends where you are.You dont want real close to the big cities here or anywhere because the crime is worse.Taxes might even be lower than Kentucky,not sure.

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
