Dicamba Drift Crop & Plant Damage | Reports of Dicamba Damage

As farmers and landowners continue to report instances of extensive clop and plant damage, one thing is becoming extremely clear; Dicamba litigation has just begun. Typical of many claims is the allegation that some of the newer formulas of dicamba are incapable of being applied safely to crops and plants. In many instances, the farmers experiencing crop damage or plant damage didn’t even apply the dicamba to their own fields.  Therefore, many of these farmers and landowners are alleging that these particular dicamba formulas are overtly unsafe.

Dicamba Lawsuit | Peiffer Wolf Carr & Kane | Smokey Alley Farm Damage

Peiffer Wolf Carr & Kane and Arkansas attorneys Michael Smith and Paul James have already filed a class action for a group of farmers on July 19, 2017 in Missouri (Smokey Alley Farm Partnership et al. v. Monsanto Company et al.).  Our suit alleges that BASF, Dupont and Monsanto are also involved in anti-trust activity through the widespread introduction of new dicamba technology and products, essentially forcing farmers to plant dicamba-tolerant acreage as a means of protection. This is in addition to our dicamba drift damage claims.

Dicamba Drift Lawyer, Paul Lesko, of Peiffer Wolf Carr & Kane says new dicamba formulations do not work as claimed by BASF and Monsanto:

“We’re bringing claims of product liability because farmers are in a quandary. They want to plant seeds of their choice, but due to damage potential, have to consider buying dicamba-tolerant soybeans from a defensive position.  We also have anti-trust issues. As discovery is ongoing, we believe the evidence will show Monsanto and BASF knew more dicamba damage would lead to increased sales.”

In addition to the suits mentioned above, additional suits have been filed that claim additional offenses: irresponsible marketing, product liability, breach of implied warranty, deceptive trade practices, and many more.
