A Century of Innovation

Virtual Plot Tour

From Henry Wallace’s first hybrid to the most advanced seed technology on the planet, take a walk through the innovations that feed the world and continue to shape modern agriculture.

One hundred years ago, Henry A. Wallace had a vision: Science could unlock new yield potential for corn farmers across the United States. That idea became Copper Cross hybrid corn. Copper Cross led to the Hi-Bred Corn Company, which became Pioneer Hi-Bred. And Pioneer became one of the most trusted and recognized seed brands in agriculture.

To celebrate our 100th anniversary, we've built the Century of Innovation Plot, a living timeline of the products and innovation that defined each era of modern farming. From Teosinte's tiny seeds to today's record-shattering genetics, every breakthrough tells a story of relentless progress. Now, you can walk through that story yourself.

Explore the plot virtually. Click into each era, discover the hybrids that changed everything and hear directly from the Pioneer experts who know them best.
