Chemical Trespassing
In agricultural regions like Monticello, Helena, Wynne, Forrest City, Blytheville, Marion, Stuttgart, and Carlisle, chemical drift is an unfortunate reality that continues to threaten farms and livelihoods. At The Ray Firm, we represent farmers, landowners, and ag producers who have been harmed by chemical trespassing, including herbicide drift, glyphosate drift, and dicamba herbicide drift. If your crops or land have suffered due to the careless application of pesticides or herbicides on neighboring properties, our team is here to help you pursue compensation and justice.
What Is Chemical Trespassing?
Chemical trespassing occurs when herbicides or pesticides—such as dicamba or glyphosate—move beyond the boundaries where they were applied, affecting adjacent properties. This is especially harmful in agricultural areas like Stuttgart or Carlisle, where crops are often sensitive to drift and organic certifications are at stake.
Common Causes of Chemical Drift
Chemical drift can happen for various reasons, including:
- Wind conditions: Spraying during windy weather can cause pesticides drift beyond their intended area.
- Improper application: Failure to follow label instructions or use proper equipment increases the risk of chemical spray drift.
- Volatility: Certain herbicides, such as
dicamba, can vaporize and travel long distances, leading to
dicamba herbicide drift and
dicamba drift damage.
In places like Wynne, Helena, or Blytheville, where large-scale spraying is common, the risk of chemical spray drift affecting neighboring fields is particularly high.
Legal Representation for Herbicide Drift Damage
If your farm in Monticello, Forrest City, or any nearby area has suffered from herbicide drift damage, you have legal options. The Ray Firm provides aggressive, informed legal representation for victims of pesticide drift, including:
- Investigating the source of the drift
- Gathering evidence to prove the extent of the damage, including flight logs
- Filing claims against negligent applicators or companies
- Seeking compensation for crop loss, property damage, and related expenses
Dicamba Herbicide Drift Cases
Dicamba drift damage has become a widespread problem across eastern Arkansas. Its volatility makes it prone to movement long after application, harming crops not genetically engineered to withstand it. If you’re in Marion, Stuttgart, or surrounding areas and have experienced crop loss or field contamination from dicamba herbicide drift, we’re prepared to help you hold responsible parties accountable.
