As a world market leader in crop protection,
we help farmers to counter these threats
and ensure enough safe, nutritious,
affordable food for all – while minimizing the
use of land and other agricultural inputs.

safe from planting to harvesting. From the
moment a seed is planted through to
harvest, crops need to be protected from
weeds, insects and diseases
as well as droughts and floods, heat and
cold.
