1. An exhaust system for an agricultural vehicle comprising: a mixer comprising: an outer conduit having a plurality of openings configured to receive a flow of exhaust gas along a direction cross-wise to a longitudinal axis of the mixer;and an inner conduit that receives a spray of diesel exhaust fluid through a distal end of the inner conduit along the longitudinal axis of the mixer during operation of the exhaust system;wherein the diesel exhaust fluid comprises an aqueous urea solution; and the outer conduit is disposed about the inner conduit, and configured to direct the flow of exhaust gas from the openings toward the distal end of the inner conduit to mix the spray of diesel exhaust fluid with the exhaust gas; and the inner conduit is configured to discharge the exhaust gas along the longitudinal axis of the mixer. 2. The exhaust system of claim 1, wherein the outer conduit comprises protrusions configured to support the inner conduit. 3. The exhaust system of claim 2, wherein the protrusions form a slip joint with the inner conduit. 4. The exhaust system of claim 1, comprising an injector configured to spray the diesel exhaust fluid into the mixer along the longitudinal axis. 5. The exhaust system of claim 1, comprising a housing disposed along an exhaust path, wherein the mixer is disposed within the housing, and the longitudinal axis of the mixer is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the housing. 6. The exhaust system of claim 5, wherein the housing encloses a diesel oxidation catalyst or a selective catalytic reduction module. 7. The exhaust system of claim 5, wherein the outer conduit is coupled to the housing via a welded connection. 8. An exhaust system for an agricultural vehicle comprising: a housing configured to receive a flow of exhaust gas;a mixer configured to receive a spray of diesel exhaust fluid along a longitudinal axis of the mixer, and to receive the flow of exhaust gas from the housing along a direction cross-wise to the longitudinal axis of the mixer, wherein the mixer comprises: a conduit having a flared portion at a distal end;a protrusion having an opening, wherein the protrustion is positioned adjacent to the flared portion and extends from an interior of the housing into the flared portion to establish an annular orifice between the protrusion and the flared portion;wherein the flared portion is configured to receive the spray of diesel exhaust fluid through the opening, and to receive the flow of exhaust gas through the annular orifice, and the conduit is configured to discharge the exhaust gas along the longitudinal axis of the mixer. 9. The exhaust system of claim 8, comprising an injector configured to spray the diesel exhaust fluid along a longitudinal axis of the mixer. 10. The exhaust system of claim 8, comprising a selective catalytic reduction module configured to receive the flow of exhaust gas from the mixer. 11. The exhaust system of claim 8, wherein the diesel exhaust fluid comprises an aqueous urea solution.
