Missouri has more meth lab arrests/seizures for a few reasons:
1) It was one of the first states to dedicate time and resources to that end (and still pumps more money into the program than most states)
2) Missouri has the combination of a major interstate highway and vast rural expanses, and no tolls throughout the state. This makes it easier to move product after creation. It has been speculated that one of the benefits of a toll road would be countering this...
I'll point out that in per capita usage, Kansas actually ranks higher (or lower, depending on how you look at it, I guess) than Missouri does. So do Nebraska, Iowa and Arkansas.
As with almost everything else... Missouri produces the stuff... and Kansas sucks at the teat (see: Major city, Population, Pro Sports, Arts and Entertainment, Business, etc.)
