Inclusion, diversity, and equity (ID&E) are essential to our success. Diverse talents and perspectives fuel creativity, curiosity, and innovation. When we involve people with a range of ideas, viewpoints, and backgrounds, while enabling a culture that fully embraces that diversity, we enhance our ability to provide the best products and solutions for farmers. To us, ID&E means:
We celebrate the rich diversity of farmers and growers around the world. Meet some of the diverse farmers we serve and learn how we are supporting female farmers globally.
We embrace the different perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds of our colleagues and strive to ensure every member of the Corteva community feels valued for their unique qualities and contributions. Meet some of our colleagues and learn about our employee-led Business Resource groups.
We are committed to inclusion within our supply base, engaging our partners in ongoing dialogue and working together to drive progress within agriculture. Learn more about our supplier diversity program and meet some of our diverse suppliers.
