The team, a diverse group of leaders and new media interested in global agriculture, has toured the United States for several weeks exploring many aspects of agriculture including marketing, transportation, farming practices and the latest technologies. They requested a presentation at NCGA headquarters while in St. Louis to better understand biotechnology and the role that it plays in our industry. Click here for the whole story.
