Syngenta acquisition boosts global footprint

Syngenta has finalized the acquisition of an ag tech company with a strong presence in Eastern Europe.

Syngenta Chief Information and Digital Officer, Greg Meyers, says Cropio (CROH-pio) Group offers an equipment-integrated, end-to-end software solution that provides imaging, recordkeeping, and equipment tracking and has managed crops on more than 24 million-acres.

Although Cropio will remain a stand-alone company, Meyers says the move makes Syngenta the only agribusiness with access to leading management platforms in the top four ag markets including the U.S., Brazil, China, and now Eastern Europe.
