Michigan’s largest agricultural equipment exposition has more to boast than just equipment. The 29th annual Michigan Ag Expo is underway this week at Michigan State University in Lansing and there’s more to the show than machinery… or even fencing, canopies, turkey legs, honey and free cake batter ice cream from MSU students.

Farmers and growers will also find a 28-foot Mobile Greenhouse on the grounds of the exposition. The greenhouse on wheels is part of Monsanto‘s “Summer of Soy” tour. The tour is showcasing one of the ag company’s newest and most innovative crops: its Roundup Ready 2 Yield soybean line. Roundup Ready 2 Yield soybeans are Monsanto’s second-generation of genetically modified soybean crop. Farmers can visit the Mobile Greenhouse to get a first-hand look at Roundup Ready 2 Yield soybeans at various growth stages.

I attended the Michigan Ag Expo yesterday to find out more about Monsanto’s new exhibit and soybean tour and will be posting lots of info from the event here.
