Herbicide’s safety questioned for years
Monsanto’s popular weed killer, Roundup, was introduced in the 1970s to kill the grasses and weeds that compete with and harm crops. Roundup is widely used by homeowners and farmers in more than 160 countries. Over the past several years, the safety of the product’s active ingredient, herbicide glyphosate, has been called into question by researchers, environmentalists, and regulators.

Failure to provide adequate warnings to the public
When someone has been injured or suffered other damages because of a product that was used, that individual may have a defective product liability claim. In the recent California lawsuit against Monsanto, the jury found that Monsanto was liable based on their assertion that the company intentionally kept information concerning Roundup’s potential links to cancer hidden from the public. The company failed to provide adequate warnings to consumers and the public regarding the potential cancer risks of its weed killer products.
