We empower farmers

We focus on developing technologies and farming practices that empower farmers, so they can feed the world’s population while preserving our planet. 

Syngenta is a global company with headquarters in Basel, Switzerland. 30,000 employees, in more than 90 countries are working to transform how crops are grown and protected.

 

A new era of agriculture

The world is entering a new era of agriculture, with a challenge on two fronts:

Farmers must produce more food for a rising population, while growing that food in a way that helps to improve our planet.

At Syngenta, we are focused on how we can empower farmers to be successful.

We make 
bold discoveries


We make bold discoveries in crop protection, seeds, biologicals and more through a unique ecosystem and approach powered by data, technology and collaboration.

We deliver 
better benefits

We hold ourselves accountable for delivering better benefits to farmers. Our Sustainability Priorities are fully embedded in our business strategy and centered on empowering farmers to profitably meet the demands of a growing population while preserving the natural resources we rely upon.

We have 

impact on a 

bigger scale

We create impact field-by-field and acre-by-acre to transform agriculture around the world. 

Through the power of data and systems we improve growers’ decisions in real-time to prevent crop failure and maximize yields. We develop global digital systems like CROPWISE™ - a suite of digital tools that help farmers maximize yields, prevent crop failure and increase profitability through decision making support and precise applications.
