Giving Back to Agriculture

Syngenta is a proud partner to Canadian agriculture. We work with universities, community organizations and national philanthropy groups on agriculture sustainability projects that ensure Canada’s rural communities remain vibrant.

Hunger Issues

Nutrition continues to be a challenge in Canada and throughout the world. As an agriculturally-based company, Syngenta is proud to be helping to feed the world.

Agriculture Education

With less than two percent of the population in Canada coming from an agricultural background, now more than ever, we need to share the importance of farming and our bioeconomy.

Sustainable Agriculture

To be sustainable, agriculture must make economic sense and be both environmentally friendly and socially viable. Syngenta supports projects in water, biodiversity and land management.

Scientific Symposia and Public Dialogue

Sound scientific discussion is important for the future success of agriculture and the health of Canadians. Syngenta partners with scientific and grower associations to keep the dialogue on sustainable agriculture flowing.

Community

Keeping agricultural communities strong and vibrant means supporting the programs and organizations at the heart of rural Canada. From the arts to community sports and charities, Syngenta sees the value in giving back

The Giving Back to Agriculture® program is designed to support Canadian agriculture and rural communities by investing in the organizations and programs that benefit the Canadian farmer. Our Giving Back program focuses on our five main areas of giving. See the links at left for more information about each of them.

In 2005, Syngenta Crop Protection Canada became a registered Caring Company with Imagine Canada, Canada’s champion for corporate social responsibility. By becoming a Caring Company, Syngenta has made a commitment to contribute to the vitality of Canadian charitable organizations and to our communities.
