Description

No one's sure who's to blame for the widespread crop damage that was caused by a new weed killer from Monsanto and BASF. Farmers blame the chemical companies, while the chemical companies blame state regulators, and so on and so on. In this episode, we speak with Bloomberg BNA's Tiffany Stecker, who just returned from a visit to the hardest hit area, to sort out what happened here.
