Company patents
BAYER CROPSCIENCE AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT
BAYER CROPSCIENCE AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT's patent strategy is surprisingly concentrated, with 94.7% of its portfolio in Biocides & Pesticides, despite a consistent decline in yearly patenting within this core area (e.g., -50.0% YoY in 2024 and -25.0% YoY in 2025). The company also shows a shifting priority away from pharma-related Heterocyclic Compounds (Pharma), experiencing a significant -85.7% YoY drop in 2024 and no patents so far in 2026, indicating a strong focus on its core agriculture sector with reduced diversification into other chemical areas.

Innovation in chemical compounds or optimized formulations specifically designed to control or inhibit the growth of unwanted plants (weeds) in agricultural settings, often with improved selectivity or reduced environmental impact.
Development and application of living organisms (e.g., bacteria, fungi, viruses) or their natural derivatives (e.g., peptides, plant extracts) as agents to suppress or eliminate agricultural pests, weeds, or plant diseases.
Technologies focused on enhancing the stability, efficacy, spread, or targeted application of biocidal active ingredients through specialized carriers, adjuvants, encapsulation, or physical forms (e.g., gels, spray-dried particles).
Design and synthesis of acyclic or carbocyclic organic compounds that selectively modulate specific biological targets or pathways for the treatment of diseases.
Methods and compositions that stimulate a plant's natural defense mechanisms or improve its physiological resilience against pathogens, pests, or environmental stressors, rather than directly eliminating the threat.
Techniques for preparing and characterizing specific solid forms, such as crystal forms, salts, co-crystals, or amorphous forms, of active pharmaceutical ingredients to optimize properties like stability, solubility, and bioavailability.
Systems and methods for accurately controlling the volume, location, and characteristics of sprayed fluids, often involving sensors, feedback, or specific nozzle geometries for precise application.
Technologies for improving the efficiency, precision, and environmental impact of spraying applications in agriculture, including smart nozzles, boom control, and real-time sensing.
Spraying devices designed to handle, mix, or independently dispense multiple distinct fluid components, often with mechanisms for selection, blending, or sequential application.
