Syngenta, a Swiss manufacturer of seeds and agricultural chemicals, faced with court processes associated with a variety of GM corn Agrisure Viptera.
More than ten farmers filed claims, accusing Syngenta that it is a variety of corn Agrisure Viptera, banned in China, caused damage to the export market.
Legal battle farmers follows the presentation of the claim Cargill. In September, Cargill filed a lawsuit against Syngenta, arguing that the seed producer acted recklessly and irresponsibly, having made the decision to sell a new variety of corn in China without obtaining the prior approval of regulatory authorities.
The situation is complicated also by the fact that Syngenta filed a lawsuit against the company Bunge, which refused to accept Agrisure Viptera their businesses in 2011.
Years will pass until all litigation Syngenta will go through the court system. When will made the last verdict, in the world probably already formed a new understanding of who and who is obliged to protect against fluctuations in the global economy and fears of GMOs.
