Valagro SpA - Syngenta
We are a global company, but we don’t forget where we came from. Atessa, Abruzzo, Italy. Here, in 1980, we had the intuition that took us this far: to create a sustainable future for people and nature. So we began to develop innovative and effective solutions for plant nutrition and care in respect of people and the environment, becoming over time a leading company in the development, production and marketing of biostimulants and specialty nutrients for crops, with 13 different subsidiaries all over the world.

About Us
We need to increase our food production by 50% by 2050 to feed our growing world. But as temperatures rise and key resources like water become increasingly limited, people, nature and food production face devastating new challenges, including climate change, population growth, and soil degradation.
How we produce food has to evolve.
Today’s farmers need more sustainable ways of growing their crops, that respond to consumers’ demands about the food we eat. Syngenta Biologicals is a global leader in agricultural biologicals, bringing science-based innovation to offer more choices and flexibility for growers.
By innovating boldly, we can transform the future of food security for us all.
In addition to our industry-leading technologies, unparalleled research expertise, and global commercia capabilities, we actively forge collaborations to help bring innovation into the hands of farmers, faster. Through our legacy company, Valagro, an innovation pioneer in the field of biostimulants, we have a proud 40-year history of offering farmers innovative solutions that are safe for people and nature.
Vision
At Syngenta Biologicals we live by the third way mindset pursuing excellence and applying science to agriculture to produce more and healthier food with sustainability at heart.

History
Today, Syngenta Biologicals is a global leader in agricultural biologicals, bringing science-based innovation to offer more choices and flexibility for growers.
A history of value
Our story began in the 1980s with a distinctive value: the incessant search for innovation, while respecting nature and ethics. These are the qualities that enabled our legacy company, Valagro, to successfully establish in the Italian market. During the 1990s, a focus on innovation and customers allowed Valagro to launch further into the European market and affirm its presence in China, South America, and the US.
In October 2020, Syngenta acquired Valagro, an investment made based on a shared foundation of science-based innovation. Following the acquisition, both companies have worked together closely in service of farmers everywhere, sharing knowledge and leveraging capabilities crucial for a world-leading biologicals business.
In July 2023, Syngenta and Valagro announced the new corporate brand for our expanding biologicals business: Syngenta Biologicals, marking an exciting time in our history. Syngenta Biologicals formalizes our one-team approach in the markets, giving us a single and market-leading identity.
At the heart of it all is our people, working towards the purpose of helping farmers improve productivity, while creating a sustainable future for people and nature.
