EAST ST. LOUIS – Syngenta denies that it boycotted Farmer’s Business Network as part of a conspiracy, stating it doesn’t deal with the network because the network stole the secrets of its seeds.
In an antitrust claim suit against Syngenta in U.S. district court, its counsel Paul Mishkin of New York City asserted “unique and entirely lawful reasons” for the company’s conduct.
Mishkin moved to dismiss the claim on May 5.
He cited a suit in Minnesota district court claiming Farmer’s Business Network and two former Syngenta Seeds employees misappropriated information.
He claimed a party has ample reason not to deal with a litigation adversary.
