Bayer and BASF are being awarded a new trial to set punitive damages in the case against Missouri peach producer Bader Farms who claims dicamba drift damaged its orchard.
The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals is vacating the $60 million of punitive damages awarded in the case because it was settled collectively. The court is now directing a new trial to award damages from Bayer and BASF separately. The court upheld the rest of the case.
