Tractors were among the first machines to radically revolutionize agriculture. Today, data and digital tools are further transforming farming. Last week, our CFO, Hengde Qin, spoke at the World Association for Sustainable Digital Transformation at Google in Zurich on key topics impacting agriculture: climate change, the role of digital technology and solutions, and more. Leveraging the technology, farmers can now grow crops with less labor and fewer inputs, make better decisions, and adopt more sustainable practices. In a range of applications across our business, we're tapping into the scope of traditional and generative AI. Through the power of digital, we’re increasing speed, efficiency, and enhancing our ability to help farmers deliver high-quality, climate-resilient crops worldwide. Check out some of the moments from the event below. 👇 #Agriculture #Innovation #AI

Recently, our CEO Jeff Rowe visited India and Indonesia, two countries where agriculture is central to both the economy and the livelihoods of millions. In India, where more than 45% of the workforce is employed in agriculture, Jeff launched and introduced 'I-RISE' (Rural India Skill Enhancement)- an initiative that will benefit more than 100,000 rural youths with the skills and opportunities to thrive within modern agriculture. This is a significant step towards empowering the next generation of agricultural leaders and strengthening India's agricultural ecosystem. He also met with our team in Haryana to witness their sustainable agricultural projects firsthand. After leaving India, Jeff visited Jakarta, Indonesia - with a population of 277.5 million people, agriculture is a cornerstone of Indonesia's economy. A special highlight for Jeff was joining an all-employee town hall, where he engaged with the team, discussed future opportunities, and explored how we can best serve farmers in the country. The innovation, hard work, and dedication of these agricultural communities is truly inspiring, and we're proud to be part of their journey to a more sustainable future. 👏 #IndianAgriculture #Sustainability #AgTech #Innovation

Integrating innovation, sustainability, and collaboration across the entire agricultural value chain is critical to building a more sustainable, food-secure future for everyone. Thanks to Alexandra Brand, our EVP of Sustainability & Corporate Affairs, for her insightful session at the recent Asia Sustainability Dialogue 2024, where she discussed the power of innovation to equip and empower farmers. We’re committed to developing solutions that help farmers navigate today’s challenges. In India, our Cropwise digital platform empowers farmers with data-driven insights to optimize their yields. Our Modern Agriculture Platform (MAP) initiative offers a comprehensive solution for growers and food value chain partners, combining digital tools with traditional services to support the entire agricultural process in China. Our cutting-edge technologies, such as PLINAZOLIN® technology, TYMIRIUM® technology, and HI-Edit, are key tools in curbing food insecurity, helping farmers produce more with less, and building resilience against climate change.
