CLIVE, Iowa - The Land Investment Expo (Expo), one of the premier agricultural forums in the nation, today announced a feature panel focusing on foreign investment in American farmland.

• Micah Brown, attorney at the National Agricultural Law Center at the University of Arkansas System's Division of Agriculture
