Liability Considerations in Las Cruces
Las Cruces and the Mesilla Valley are the heart of New Mexico agriculture, producing the state's famous green and red chile peppers, pecans, cotton, and onions. Paraquat has been applied across Dona Ana County farmland for decades as a burndown herbicide and crop management tool. The valley's large agricultural workforce — including many who commute from across the border — has chronic paraquat exposure from field preparation and crop maintenance. New Mexico's 3-year statute of limitations under NMSA § 37-1-8 with the discovery rule provides a reasonable filing window for Mesilla Valley farmworkers with Parkinson's diagnoses.
