A Look into the America's Farmers Mobile Experience

America's Farmers Mobile Experience is a 53-foot tractor trailer that folds out into 1,000 square feet of exhibit space. Step into this Mobile Experience and get a first-hand look at not only the demands global agriculture faces, but also how farmers truly are the solution. And learn it all in a mere 24 minutes.


The Mobile Experience is divided into three acts:



Act I: Global Demands

  • Identify the challenges farmers face as they increase food production to meet the needs of a world population expected to grow to 9 billion.

  • Learn about population trends and agricultural sustainability on various touch-screen displays – while a real-time counter tracks population growth.



Act II: The Solution – America's Farmer

  • Immerse yourself in a 180-degree theater and experience an American farm family's life.

  • See for yourself what America's farmers are currently doing to meet world demands – and how they provide for us today and in the future.



Act III: The Tools – Traits & Technology

  • Discover the tools and technologies, including breeding, biotechnology and agronomics, that help farmers meet current challenges.

  • Gain a better understanding of how plant breeding helps farmers sustainably produce more grains, vegetables and fruits using fewer resources.

  • Record your own video thank you to America's farmers for growing twice as much food as their parents did – using less land, energy, water and fewer emissions.
