Corteva Inc. has announced its intended board of directors as a standalone publicly-traded, differentiated crop protection company upon its planned separation in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Greg Page will lead the nine-person board as Independent Chair as previously announced. With the exception of Karen Grimes, Marcos Lutz, Chuck Magro and Kerry Preete, Corteva’s existing board of directors will continue with Corteva. Luke Kissam will be appointed to the board of directors effective at separation.

“Corteva will be a company with operational efficiency at its core and by building on its legacy of differentiated innovation, will have an industry leading pipeline to bring value to farmers for years to come,” said Page. “I look forward to working alongside my future fellow directors as well as the senior management team to leverage the considerable advantage Corteva will enjoy to deliver results for customers, farmers and shareholders alike.”
