CROP PROTECTION AND ENHANCEMENT BUSINESS

Our enduring aim is to support agriculture in meeting the growing global demand for abundant, nutritious, safe, and affordable food.
 
Today, there are over 7 billion people in the world, and by 2050, the number will reach 9.7 billion. However, arable land will not increase at the same pace. This means farmers will need to produce 70% more food on less land than before. Agricultural productivity per unit area must increase to ensure a stable food supply to feed the world’s growing population. We need better production methods, new technologies, and stronger crops, balanced with careful use of crop protection products.
 
Crop Protection
 
Our portfolio of conventional, biologically-based, and organic crop-protection solutions provides proven and dependable herbicide, insecticide, and fungicide products. Our solutions offer buyers superior weed, insect, and disease control options, delivering measurable value to both food producers and consumers.
 
Seed Treatment
 
Seed treatments help enhance stand establishment and get seedlings off to a healthy start, thereby maximizing crop success. Such treatments provide early-season control of seed and seedling pathogens in soybeans, corn, cotton, and wheat. Seed treatments protect young plants from insects, diseases, and nematodes. This prevents irreversible damage during early growth.
 
Soil Health
 
Crop health begins with healthy soil. A nourishing growing medium is critical to successful agriculture, horticulture, and forestry industries. Our mycorrhizal soil inoculants accelerate plant performance by increasing the surface-absorbing area of roots, producing a healthier root system. Specialized fungi colonize roots, forming a symbiotic network that improves plant nutrient and water absorption efficiency. Optimizing plant hardiness with improved soil health maximizes plant success and improves a return on investment.
