Our Sustainable Innovation Glossary Table defines thresholds by product type. Each product below lists only the criteria where it meets or exceeds the relevant threshold; products must also meet internal "no decline" guardrails across all criteria.
Reduced stature corn S
Description
Reduced stature corn is expected to improve yield potential and make the stalk shorter and stronger, which provides added benefits like increased climate resilience, resistance to extreme weather events, tolerance to higher plant density, better standability, and all-season equipment access to our high-yielding germplasm.
Use cases
Easier accessibility for in-season applications
Corn in areas where lodging due to strong winds is a concern
