New solutions require innovation

As the world’s population continues to expand, farmers are being asked to produce more in the face of less resources, extreme weather, and rapidly evolving pests and diseases.

Meeting this challenge requires new solutions for agriculture.

Our Strategic Verticals

We look at opportunities across four primary strategic verticals

Novel and game-changing breeding technologies with broad applications and unlimited potential to benefit farmers and societies around the globe.

Cutting-edge, complementary solutions to persistent challenges, like resistance management and environmental impact, that broaden the tools available to farmers to increase yield sustainably.

Innovative platforms that accelerate product discovery and development, including through enhanced research processes, expanded applications, or improved efficiency.

Advanced capabilities such as data analytics, automation, AI, and precision phenotyping to build better products and place them more effectively into the field.
