Cultivating Ag Leaders

Opening Doors for Future Farmers and Agricultural Leaders

Bayer supports youth in rural and urban communities with the resources, experience, and education they need to pursue careers in agriculture. We’re also proud to work with time-honored agriculture organizations like 4-H and the National FFA Organization and participate in ag forums and grants to open new doors for youth in agriculture.

Seeds and Traits

It all starts with a seed

With decades of expertise, Bayer’s seeds and traits have paved the way for some of the highest-performing fields in U.S. agriculture. With our premier brands DEKALB, Asgrow, and Deltapine, we help farmers raise some of the best, most resilient crops.

Crop Protection

Protecting the health of crops all season long

Pests cost the United States an estimated $40 billion in crop and forest production per year. Bayer’s tailored approach and leading portfolio of fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, and seed treatments help farmers minimize risk of crop damage.

Digital Farming Solutions

Optimizing with digital insights

Harvests are worth more than just the yields they produce. Every year, farmers get to learn about the unique dynamics within their fields so they can improve in the future. Bayer’s digital tools like Climate FieldView make it easier to collect and analyze field data, so farmers can spend more time innovating out in the field.

Learn more about our digital tools.

Regenerative Agriculture

Rewarding and scaling sustainable agriculture

Through the ForGround by Bayer program, Bayer is helping farmers adopt and expand regenerative agriculture practices as well as access to potential new revenue opportunities. Not only can farmers nurture their soils with these practices, it can help sequester atmospheric carbon which opens up potential new income streams to the farm through the Bayer Carbon Program. A little extra cash, tools to simplify the job and sustainable farming practices that can pay out in the long haul? We'll call that a win-win for American farmers.

Preserving Biodiversity

Biodiversity is about balance…the give and the take of nature.

At Bayer, we are helping to preserve biodiversity by remaining good stewards and pushing ourselves to find groundbreaking solutions, such as advanced digital tools, plant breeding, biotechnology, and other technologies that improve land use, and help US farmers produce more while using fewer resources.
