Corteva spins off from DowDuPont
Corteva Agriscience is operating independently after spinning off from DowDuPont.
Tim Glenn, chief commercial officer with Corteva, says the move has been in the works for a few years.
“When Dow and DuPont announced the merge back in December 2015 the intent was always to create three independent companies and one of those companies was going to be an agricultural company,” he says. “And so the agriculture company is Corteva Agriscience.”
Corteva’s first day operating independently was June 1 and its first day trading publicly on the New York Stock Exchange was June 3.
He tells Brownfield the company will be better positioned to help farmers succeed with a balanced portfolio of seed and crop protection.
“We’re focused on bringing the best technology to them, having the best people in the field service them, and ultimately be there to serve their needs over the long run,” he says.
Glenn says Corteva is more committed to bringing innovative technologies to customers than ever before.
“We’ve been committed to continuing to invest in research and development and ultimately bring new and better products to our customers,” he says. “Customers today need to have better solutions that are going to make them as productive as possible dealing with the big challenges they face every day in the field.”
Corteva has global business centers in Indianapolis, Indiana and Johnston, Iowa.
