A Kansas jury has ordered Syngenta AG to pay $217.7 million to a group of Kansas farmers in a suit related to the marketing of genetically modified corn seed which caused contamination of U.S. crops and the suspension of U.S. corn exports to China. The jury agreed that the marketing of the GMO strain not yet approved for the Chinese market caused five years of depressed corn prices and issued the fine to cover lost sales plus punitive damages.
