Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]  
Acquisitions AcquisitionsOn June 29, 2022 we announced a definitive agreement to acquire BioPhero ApS ("BioPhero"), a Denmark-based pheromone research and production company. The acquisition adds state-of-the-art biologically produced pheromone insect control technology to our product portfolio and R&D pipeline, underscoring our role as a leader in delivering innovative and sustainable crop protection solutions. The purchase price of approximately $200 million was paid at closing on July 19, 2022. The acquisition, which will be accounted for as a business combination, will include all of BioPhero’s technology, IP, supply agreements, employees and net assets of the business. The purchase price allocation is expected to be largely concentrated across the intangible assets being acquired, with a portion of the value ascribed to in process research and development assets and goodwill.
