Last week the various environmental and farming groups as amicus curiae filed a brief in favor of Bader Farms Inc. and its owners who claimed that BASF and Monsanto are at fault for their 1,000 acre peach orchard being destroyed by dicamba, a herbicide produced by the defendants, which was sprayed on a neighboring farm.
The brief was filed last week on Wednesday in the Eighth Circuit and is currently under seal but available via the Center for Food Safety. The National Family Farms Coalition, Center for Biological Diversity, Pesticide Action Network, Center for Food Safety, and Save Our Crops Coalition argued that the defendants dicamba-resistant crop system caused the damage to the orchard, and contested allegations from the defendants and appellants that there is adequate federal regulation.
