To protect our crops and feed a growing population, farmers need access to novel tools and technologies that enable sustainable cultivation of row crops, fruits, and vegetables. We know we can’t do that alone, so we are looking to support innovators by partnering to drive new ideas towards commercialization.
We are seeking novel approaches and technologies that sustainably protect crops while preserving natural habitats.
- Traits that improve nutrient and water use efficiency or increase carbon sequestration in row crops, fruits and vegetables.
- Novel approaches to optimize, identify and validate gene or protein expression, activity and regulation.
- Novel approaches to discover and optimize native crop genes
- Novel approaches to increase genetic diversity/variation in crops
- Novel approaches for reducing insect and nematode damage or reducing fungal growth and symptoms
- Novel approaches for increasing tolerance to herbicide applications and/or lower weed pressure
- Controlled-release technologies for active ingredients and biologicals
Bayer’s vision of #HealthForAll, #HungerForNone drives our need to strengthen innovation capabilities in all areas of agriculture. We know we can’t accomplish this alone, so we're always interested to hear about novel, early-stage scientific innovations that can contribute to feeding the world without starving the planet. You have our commitment to take a look, match with our R&D priorities and provide you timely feedback.
