Read excerpt
Please send us your feedback on the podcast: agriscience-explained@vylor.com In this episode, we look back on the past 100 years, and highlight what will carry over into this next chapter in the company’s history. Corteva Agriscience chief technology and digital officer Sam Eathington and some really special guests discuss the past, present and future of agriscience innovation. And here we are today with I think arguably the most amazing sort of agriculture feats and what's happened with hybrid
Persistence and Creativity: Unique insights behind herbicide development (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dr. Carla Yerkes joins us to help us tell the story of Rinskor and explain the process of herbicide innovation and the persistence and creativity it takes to develop new solutions for farmers. Yerkes is a research biologist at Corteva Agriscience and has a Ph.D. in herbicide physiology. She has spent about half of her 30 year career in herbicide discovery research and the other half in herbicide trait discovery. I think what keeps me excited is the fact that we continuously need new herbicides.
Precision Unlocks Future Potential: The History and Science of Genome Editing (opens the original)

What is happening in agriscience today that we will be talking about 100 years from now? While it’s impossible to answer that question with certainty, there is a technology that has the potential to impact our industry in the next century as much or even more than hybridization changed the game over the past century. That technology is genome editing. The promise of this technology is very real and today you’re going to hear firsthand accounts of what changed in 2012 and 2013 to make all of this
