AgriNext Agenda

Day One | Mississippi Riverboat Dinner Cruise

Wednesday, July 23 | Boarding begins at 6:30pm, Cruise 7-9:00pm

AgriNext sets sail Wednesday evening on a narrated cruise along the Mississippi River through the St. Louis harbor.

Known as the ‘Ag Coast of America’ the St. Louis region’s port system routinely handles nearly 450,000 tons per mile - two-and-a-half times more than its closest competitors - accounting for nearly one-third of all freight transported on the Mississippi River.

Enjoy dinner and drinks with speakers and fellow attendees as you take in the sights along this informative journey.

Round trip transportation between the hotel and riverfront is included, offering guests a stylish ride on luxury golf carts while taking in the views of downtown St. Louis and the Gateway Arch grounds.

Making America “Healthy” Again, but at What Cost to Agriculture?
