Agricultural Mass Torts

Farmers increasingly rely on large agricultural companies to supply the seed and materials they need to feed the world, but these companies also have the power to cause serious damage to small farmers. If you’ve suffered a serious financial loss as a result of the actions of an agricultural company, contact the national law firm of Watts Guerra.

Companies like ConAgra, Monsanto, and Bayer CropScience have a huge presence in the world’s food market, but it’s often the small farmer who bears the brunt of their actions. Decisions by these firms can have a significant impact on crop prices. Actions these companies take can even threaten the livelihood of the farmers who grow their crops.

If you’ve suffered serious financial damages because of the actions of a large agricultural company, consulting with an experienced attorney is your best course of action.

Agricultural Mass Tort Lawsuits

Mass production is the very nature of big agribusiness. When one agriculture or farming company causes significant damages, hundreds and even thousands of farmers can suffer severe financial consequences. For this reason, cases against agricultural companies are often handled in a type of lawsuit called a “mass tort”.

A mass tort happens when a number of cases are brought together in a single court and evidence is shared between the cases. Mass torts are often confused with class-action lawsuits, but they are actually very different. In class-action suits, a large number of plaintiffs are all given the same financial award, in mass torts each individual case is still decided on its own.
