Corteva Agriscience plans to invest an additional $15M to expand its production capacity in Ukraine once the security situation stabilizes.

The company’s top manager, Andre Negreiros, stated that this investment aims to boost Ukraine’s agricultural sector.

“Ukrainian farmers grow products that feed not only Europe, but also countries in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Every ton of grain shipped from the ports of Greater Odesa, or the Danube, contributes to global food security. Sustainable development of the agricultural sector is a strategic task for the country’s recovery. Thanks to these investments, we plan to modernize and expand seed production, as well as strengthen cooperation with Ukrainian farmers to ensure increased demand for corn and oilseeds from Ukraine,” he added.

Corteva, which employs over 500 people in Ukraine, has been actively supporting local communities since 2022, including providing over $2M in humanitarian aid and seeds to farmers near the war zone. Corteva’s investment aligns with Ukraine’s priorities to rebuild infrastructure, renew its industry, and boost export potential.
