The Oliver Law Group P.C. announced that it has launched a Syngenta lawsuit for GMO Corn Seed web page to provide the public with information about the litigation surrounding Agrisure Viptera, a variety of genetically modified corn seed which has not been approved for sale in China. According to a recent report from The Wall Street Journal, China has rejected numerous shipments of U.S. corn that contain the Agrisure Viptera variety, which resulted in an 85% reduction of such shipments in the first seven months of 2014.

Syngenta faces second lawsuit over GMO corn rejected by China
2014-09-17 02:04:12| Chemicals - Topix.net
A second company has sued Syngenta AG over sales of genetically modified corn seed not approved by China, raising the stakes for the Swiss-based seed maker by including byproducts used for animal feed in its complaint and seeking class-action status. Trans Coastal Supply Co, a major exporter of livestock feed products, said in court documents it expects to lose more than $41 million because Syngenta sold Agrisure Viptera corn seed, known as MIR 162, to U.S. farmers without first obtaining import approval from Beijing.

Cargill sues Syngenta over China corn rejections
2014-09-13 12:51:23| Agriculture - Topix.net
The move led to a series of rejections, from late 2013, by Chinese customs officials of cargos of US corn containing MIR 162 - a genetically modified trait cleared by Washington but not by Beijing. "Unlike other seed companies, Syngenta has not practiced responsible stewardship by broadly commercialising a new product before receiving approval from a key export market like China," said Mark Stonacek, the president of Cargill's North American grain and oilseed supply operations.
