DowDuPont’s Agriculture Division is rebranding itself under the new name of Corteva Agriscience. Crafted from two words meaning “heart” and “nature,” the name is said to be a signal of the company’s commitment to “enhancing farmer productivity as well as the health and well-being of the consumers they serve.”

Corteva combines DuPont Crop Protection, DuPont Pioneer and Dow AgroSciences to serve as a stand-alone company covering seed technologies, crop protection and digital agriculture. The company will also house the farm-management software company Granular, which DuPont acquired in August 2017.
