Corteva Inc. has announced that "New Corteva," its future crop protection company, will be headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, and Vylor, its advanced seed and genetics company, will be headquartered in Johnston, Iowa, both following the current company's planned separation in the fourth quarter of 2026. 

 

The decision underscores both companies' commitment to their employees, deep community roots and legacy of agricultural innovation in both Iowa and Indiana.
 

New Corteva will headquarter its market-leading crop protection and nature-inspired technologies business in Indianapolis, including its R&D team of world-class scientists and capabilities. The critical decision to be headquartered in the state is driven by Indiana's position as a global biosciences innovation hub. New Corteva will maintain a Global Corporate Business Center in Wilmington, Delaware. 

 

Vylor will be headquartered in Johnston, Iowa, home of its flagship Pioneer brand and more than a century of innovation. Anchored in elite germplasm and cutting-edge biotechnology, Vylor will advance its seed and genetics business while exploring opportunities to expand to new crops - and potentially beyond. Vylor will also have a Global Corporate Business Center in Southeast Pennsylvania.
