# Corteva: Business Model & Revenue Engine

## Direct Answer

Corteva reports revenue across 2 business segments in its fiscal 2025 Form 10-K. Seed is the largest, with $9.9 billion of revenue (57% of the total), followed by Crop Protection at $7.5 billion (43%).

## How Does Corteva Make Money?

No single line supplies a majority of revenue: the largest, Seed, is 57%, which spreads Corteva's exposure across several demand drivers. Between fiscal 2024 and 2025, Seed grew fastest (+3.7%) and Crop Protection slowest (+1.9%), so the revenue mix tilts toward Seed while that gap lasts.

| Segment | FY2025 revenue | FY2024 revenue | Share of revenue | Change |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Seed | $9.9 billion | $9.5 billion | 56.9% | 3.7% |
| Crop Protection | $7.5 billion | $7.4 billion | 43.1% | 1.9% |

## What the Segment Figures Do Not Show

The rows above add up to 100% of Corteva's reported revenue for fiscal 2025; the difference is intersegment eliminations, corporate revenue or items the company reports outside its segments. Segment definitions are management's choice and change when a company reorganizes, in which case it restates prior years in the next filing, so a multi-year comparison should use the figures from a single filing. Revenue shows where sales come from, not where profit or cash is earned: a small segment can carry most of the margin.

## Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page is a value Corteva reported in the segment note and revenue disclosures of its Form 10-K filed February 12, 2026 (accession 0001755672-26-000004), read from the SEC's Financial Statement Data Sets. The prior-year column is the comparative figure from that same filing, so it reflects any restatement for a change in segments. Category names are the company's own XBRL labels, lightly reformatted for reading.

Rows that only total other rows (for example a "Products" line beside the individual products) are left out so nothing is counted twice. This page is educational and describes reported history for fiscal 2025; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
