Individual Claims for Corn Growers
You already know the impact of the drop in corn prices on your farm. What most people don’t realize is why the price of corn has dropped, or that it could have been prevented.
The National Grain and Feed Association (NGFA) estimates that money damages could be anywhere from 20 cents to one dollar per bushel. In most cases there is very little work on your part to make a claim for compensation. We gather many of the records for you so you can continue concentrating on farming with the peace of mind that we are working hard on your behalf.
U.S. Corn Supply Contaminated By Syngenta GMO Corn in 2013
Despite warnings from the NGFA, Syngenta Seeds, Inc. marketed the new GMO seed Viptera before it was approved by China, the third largest consumer of U.S. corn products.
U.S. Corn Exports Down 85%
When corn shipments arrived in China carrying unapproved Viptera, China began enforcing its zero tolerance policy for the unapproved GMO traits.
Although a majority of U.S. farmers did not use unapproved Syngenta seed, their corn was mixed in with Syngenta products during storage and shipping, resulting in China rejecting all U.S. corn, and causing a decline in corn prices.
Corn Prices Remain in Danger
In 2014, Syngenta introduced Duracade into the U.S. market, once again prior to approval in China. Since January of 2013, U.S. corn trade with China has virtually ceased and corn prices have remained low, costing U.S. farmers billions in lost profits.
It’s Time To Hold Syngenta Accountable
If you sold corn during the 2013, 2014, 2015 or 2016 season, your crop prices were most likely affected by Syngenta’s decision to prematurely market its seeds before gaining approval from all of the U.S.’ major trading partners, including China.
