Agriculture Stocks To Add to Your Watchlist - May 1st

Key Points

• Deere & Company (DE), Corteva (CTVA) and Gates Industrial (GTES) are MarketBeat's three agriculture stocks to watch as food inflation stays elevated in 2026, and they recorded the highest dollar trading volume among agriculture names recently.
• Agriculture stocks offer exposure to crop prices, weather and yield variability, input costs and global food demand, which makes their returns more cyclical and commodity-sensitive than many other sectors.
• Deere manufactures a broad range of agriculture, turf, construction and forestry equipment (plus Financial Services), while Corteva concentrates on seed genetics and crop‑protection technologies to boost yield and resistance; Gates is also highlighted as a watchlist pick.

Deere & Company, Corteva, and Gates Industrial are the three Agriculture stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Agriculture stocks are shares of publicly traded companies whose main businesses serve the farming and food-production chain — for example, farm equipment manufacturers, seed and agrochemical producers, fertilizer companies, commodity processors, and large agricultural producers or distributors. For investors, these stocks provide exposure to trends in crop prices, weather and yield variability, input costs, global food demand and agricultural policy, which can make their returns more cyclical and commodity-sensitive than many other sectors. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Agriculture stocks within the last several days.
