Corteva, Inc. (NYSE: CTVA) announced it will implement a global business-unit organization model in order to support its long-term operating performance. In connection with this move, Robert King will join the company as Executive Vice President, Crop Protection Business Unit, and company veteran Tim Glenn has been named Executive Vice President, Seed Business Unit.

Mr. Magro said, “Shifting to a business-unit focused model will facilitate increased focus, enhanced accountability and faster speed to market, while also leveraging the considerable global strengths of Corteva. Robert and Tim are the right leaders for these new roles given their passion for our industry, commitment to executional excellence and track record of delivering consistently strong results. With their complementary skillsets, I know they will build a strong partnership and together drive increased value for all stakeholders.”

Mr. King commented, “I’m incredibly excited to join the great team at Corteva given the strong outlook for the ag industry and the company’s leadership position. I look forward to using my experience in manufacturing, operations and procurement to deliver on the growth and profitability potential of the Crop Protection business unit.”
