Bayer AG is a German life sciences company operating through three primary divisions: Pharmaceuticals, Crop Science, and Consumer Health. The Pharmaceuticals segment focuses on prescription therapeutics for cardiology, oncology, and women’s health, while the Consumer Health division manages over-the-counter brands in dermatology and nutrition. The Crop Science segment provides seeds, digital farming tools, and chemical crop protection solutions to the global agricultural market.

Bayer utilizes a diversified distribution network ranging from direct sales to farmers and hospitals to retail partnerships through pharmacies and supermarkets.
