WASHINGTON, D.C. (RFD NEWS) — The Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments in a glyphosate lawsuit that could have significant implications for agriculture, as the case centers around the herbicide Roundup, one of thousands of lawsuits filed over the past decade, with a decision that could impact all crop protection products.
Dr. Peter Beetham, Interim CEO of Cibus, joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to provide insight into the case and its potential impact on the agriculture industry.
In his interview with RFD News, Dr. Beetham discussed the background of the case and its importance to agriculture, as well as what could happen if the Court does not rule in favor of Bayer, including whether the company could consider pulling Roundup from the market.
Beetham also addressed what such a decision could mean for farmers and potential ripple effects across the ag supply chain. He went on to explain how a ruling could influence research and development efforts at Cibus, and whether alternatives might be available to farmers.
Finally, he shared his outlook for the case going forward and what the industry should consider ahead of the Court’s decision.
