by Todd Neeley (DTN Progressive Farmer) With a trial possibly years away in an ongoing ethanol market manipulation case, plaintiffs are waging a fight for the disclosure of information from Archer Daniels Midland, according to court documents.
Four cases have been combined in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of Illinois in Urbana. All the plaintiffs allege ADM manipulated the ethanol market at a key trading hub between 2017 and 2019.
At the end of last week, AOT Holding AG, Maize Capital Group LLC, Midwest Renewable Energy LLC, Green Plains Trade Group Limited, and a group of six ethanol companies led by United Wisconsin Grain Producers LLC filed a joint motion to compel ADM to respond to their discovery request.

LINCOLN, Neb. (DTN) The federal government and farmers and other landowners along the Missouri River basin filed notices of appeal of a ruling handed down from a federal claims court related to repeated flooding in the basin, according to court documents.
In early February, the U.S. Court of Federal Claims awarded St. Joseph, Missouri, farmer Roger Ideker about $6 million for a flowage easement and repairs to a levee. Two other plaintiffs were awarded a total of about $4.2 million. The court found the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers responsible for much of the flooding that has occurred during the past decade.
