Syngenta
Syngenta is one of the world's leading agribusiness companies, offering a broad portfolio of pre-treated seeds, seed treatments, fungicides, herbicides, insecticides and post harvest products to protect crops from seed to store. Syngenta annually invests 10 percent of its profits to research and development, and the company employs nearly 4,000 people to work on developing new products for an ever-changing agriculture industry.
Despite its global reach, Syngenta prides itself on local presence. In the United States alone, Syngenta employs more than 250 local crop protection and seed care representatives, as well as an extensive technical team, to provide answers and support when a grower needs help.
All divisions of Syngenta – Crop Protection, Seed Care, ROGERS® brand vegetable seeds, and Professional Products – support Florida agriculture in many ways. The company invests in research initiatives across the state. Scientists at the Vero Beach Research Center and the Syngenta/ROGERS research station in Naples study and develop innovative products and technologies, providing growers with useful and effective crop solutions.
In Florida, Syngenta Crop Protection supports many other IFAS initiatives, including research grants that exceed $100,000 in annual spending, as well as local extension and grower educational meetings and events. For more than 20 years, Syngenta Crop Protection has offered a summer internship program for college sophomores and juniors interested in pursuing a career in agriculture. Syngenta also sponsors the Florida Fruit & Vegetable Association scholarship.
