Monsanto's genetically engineered Roundup-resistant wheat contaminated
natural soft white wheat and hurt farmers' export business, growers
claim in two class actions.
Genetically modified (GM) wheat found growing in an Oregon field in May is resistant to Monsanto's herbicide Roundup, and not approved for commercial planting or sale. The farmers claim Monsanto failed to control the spread of its GM wheat during field tests in the Pacific Northwest.
Dreger Enterprises and Wahl Ranch are named plaintiffs in one case. Plaintiffs in the other class action are Clarmar Farms, farmer Tom Stahl and the Center for Food Safety. Citations in this article are taken from the Dreger-Wahl lawsuit.
