Des Moines Register: Monsanto Co. and nearly a dozen state and national farm groups are suing California over the state’s decision to list the popular ag chemical glyphosate as a carcinogen. “The impact on farmers could be … very detrimental,” said Kirk Leeds, CEO of the Iowa Soybean Association. The soybean group, the Agribusiness Association of Iowa, and the National Corn Growers Association are among the groups suing California. Glyphosate is a key ingredient in Monsanto’s top-selling weedkiller Roundup.
