SUMMARY:2022 Winter Farminar Series: Organic Day-Neutral Strawberry Production in the Upper Midwest
DESCRIPTION:Opportunities for producing berries at unique times of year in the Midwest are exciting\, as are those for organic berry production. At Little Berry Farm near Northfield\, Minnesota\, Aaron Wills is accomplishing both. Hear from Aaron about using caterpillar tunnels to produce day-neutral strawberries\, which offer harvests from late summer well into fall. \nAaron Wills grew up surrounded by farming\, but never thought he’d want to be a farmer. After graduating from college\, Aaron served for two years in the Peace Corps in Borino\, a remote mountain village in Bulgaria. Today Aaron\, along with his partner\, Molly McGovern Wills\, own and operate Little Hill Berry Farm near Northfield\, Minnesota\, where they grow organic strawberries\, blueberries and raspberries\, along with pumpkins and native prairie strips. They sell through farmers markets\, online sales and U-pick on the farm\, where they greet 200-400 customers each picking day during blueberry season. \nFarminars are webinars that are free and produced to help farmers learn about business and production issues that matter to them from the convenience of their homes. Learn more about Practical Farmers of Iowa. View previous Farminars here.

SUMMARY:A Legal Roundup of Glyphosate: History & Outlook
DESCRIPTION:Glyphosate is one of the most-used pesticides in the United States. It is the active ingredient in Roundup\, which has been used for decades to combat stubborn weeds. In recent years\, glyphosate has been at the center of several high-profile lawsuits where the plaintiffs claim that exposure to glyphosate caused them to develop non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The lawsuits have thus far resulted in several large awards granted to plaintiffs following jury trials\, a large settlement available to thousands of plaintiffs\, and an emerging legal issue that may ultimately be heard by the Supreme Court. \nAs these lawsuits have progressed through the court system\, a question has arisen regarding preemption. Preemption occurs when a higher form of government reduces the authority of a lower level of government. If a federal law and a state law conflict\, then the federal law has authority and will preempt the state law. Plaintiffs in glyphosate lawsuits tend to bring state law claims to argue that the manufacturer failed to warn them of the dangers posed by use of Roundup. However\, pesticide labeling is largely regulated by federal law. Bayer\, the company that manufactures Roundup\, claims that federal pesticide labeling laws preempt the state law claims raised by plaintiffs in such a way that would prevent the plaintiffs from bringing those claims to court. Currently\, the issue is on appeal to the United States Supreme Court. A ruling on the matter could potentially alter the course of pesticide litigation. \nThis webinar will provide an overview of the glyphosate litigation\, including a brief history of how we got here\, a breakdown of where things are currently\, and an in-depth look at the issue of preemption and what it could mean for pesticide lawsuits. \nRegister for the webinar here.
