Johnston will be the corporate headquarters for Vylor, the giant Corteva Agriscience seed spinoff, the $55 billion company has announced. The Tuesday, May 12, news comes after a lobbying campaign by Johnston and Iowa leaders that began in October, when Indianapolis-based Corteva said it would split its Indianapolis seed and crop protection businesses. The move will represent a sort of homecoming for the company. Corteva's seed business has its roots in Pioneer, the hybrid seed company that long was based in Johnston before it landed with Corteva in a series of acquisitions and other corporate moves. Corteva's seed research and development arm is still in the Polk County city. Tap the link in our bio for more on this story. #Johnston #Iowa #Corteva #agriculture
