Africa: John Deere, Corteva Partnership to Include Precision
John Deere, the world’s largest manufacturer of agricultural equipment and Corteva Agriscience, the global leader, in two large, attractive markets – seed and crop protection – underpinned by expanding digital capabilities have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) aimed at accelerating Africa’s agricultural sector and enriching the lives of farmers across the continent.
The agreement officially establishes and consolidates the existing relationship between John Deere and Corteva, formally coordinating collaboration opportunities in sales and marketing across Africa.
