The main room for the World Agricultural Forum is set up in a kind of arena style with participants at tables on risers around a central podium and table where groups of speakers gather and talk on a specific subject.

I’m here to cover the event for the next day and then I’ll be seeking the help of the Mizzou Student Blogging Team for the rest of the conference. Right now these guys are talking about “How Do We Revolutionize The Global System To Meet The Growing Needs Of Food, Fuel, Fiber And Water For All?” I’m recording the presentation after doing some interviews on the break so you can expect some audio to come soon. There are representatives on this program from companies like Bunge North America, Tyson Foods and Monsanto and representatives from government and NGO’s in Uganda and Brazil.

All my photos are being uploaded to an online photo album. Feel free to check it out:
