So, like, there’s this thing happening in Stowe, Vermont, USA where they’re all about growing corn in the early fall. Don Landwehrle from Adobe Stock captured this whole corn-growing vibe, you know? It’s like a whole scene out there with farmers getting their hands dirty and tending to the corn fields. I mean, who knew corn could be so interesting, right?
I’m not really sure why this matters, but there are some groups like the American Soybean Association and the Cherry Marketing Institute who are all up in arms about Monsanto’s petition to the U.S. Supreme Court. They want the Court to review this whole Roundup case, which seems to be causing quite a stir in the agricultural community. Apparently, there’s some concern about the ingredient glyphosate in Roundup, and farmers growing corn, soybeans, blueberries, and cherries are all getting involved. It’s like a whole drama unfolding in the farming world, man.
It’s like a big deal, you know? Monsanto is asking the Supreme Court to settle this whole dispute over whether federal law trumps state law when it comes to claims about Roundup’s health risks. And with Bill Anderson, the CEO of Bayer, hinting that they might have to pull Roundup from the market because of lawsuits, things are getting pretty intense. I mean, who would’ve thought that corn farming could lead to such legal drama, right? It’s like a soap opera but with corn and pesticides.
