Liability Considerations in Salisbury
Salisbury and the Eastern Shore of Maryland form one of the most agriculturally productive regions in the mid-Atlantic. Corn and soybean farming to support the Delmarva poultry industry, along with vegetable and grain operations, have used paraquat as a burndown herbicide and desiccant across Wicomico, Dorchester, Worcester, and Somerset counties. The Eastern Shore's agricultural workforce has decades of paraquat exposure from row-crop farming. Maryland's 3-year statute of limitations under Md. Code Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-101 with the discovery rule provides a favorable window for Eastern Shore farmworkers to file paraquat Parkinson's claims.
