based ag-biologicals technology and products
8 The Power of the Microbiome Billions of microbes make a difference! Billions of microbes integral to
plant-related ecosystems impact the entire plant lifecycle Surrounding microbes generate nature’s largest ‘function bank’ to the plant growth and development These microbes act as the ‘Live Engine’ supporting yield production in the
field The challenge: Discovering the right microbes and tailoring them for commercial use

field of activity. 2 As part of Corteva’s investment in Lavie Bio in 2019, Lavie acquired the assets of Taxon Biosciences, including a large microbial collection. 1 2
