Agricultural intelligence:
The engine of the 4th revolution
With a global population expected to reach 10 billion people by 2050, farmers need new solutions to sustainably feed the world.
As a company driven by innovation, we believe the next evolution of farming is driven by data and artificial intelligence. And we’re using agricultural intelligence to get there.
What is agricultural intelligence?
Agricultural intelligence combines cutting-edge AI and new technologies with the lived experience of generations of growers and agronomists to farm better.
This supercharges every step of our world-leading R&D pipeline, from vegetable breeding, to crop protection products, to decision-enhancing technology platforms. We then combine these technologies with deep grower expertise, born of centuries of working the land, to scale agricultural productivity and resilience around the world.
We think of it as modern farming, reimagined. It offers growers the data, products, seeds, and services they need to make strategic business decisions that ensure the health and wellbeing of their crops, their livestock, and ultimately, their families.
It’s kinder to the environment too. Data-driven land stewardship is at the heart of the 4th agricultural revolution. And it’s the only way we’re going to feed 10 billion people.

What is the 4th agricultural revolution?
In simple terms, the 4th agricultural revolution is the next era of farming, driven by new technologies. It represents the enormous potential and expected changes the new technologies can have in this lifeblood industry.
Like the three revolutions – the Neolithic Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, and the Green Revolution - that established modern agriculture as we know it, it is driven by innovation. And it will fundamentally transform farming.
From soil-to-satellite connections to leaf-level pest detection and mechanized weeding and harvesting, these breakthroughs not only underpin agriculture – they supercharge it, sustainably. In short: the 4th agricultural revolution is already here.
