Liability Considerations in Lancaster
Lancaster County's 5,000+ farms make it one of the most agriculturally intensive counties east of the Mississippi River. Corn, soybean, and tobacco operations have used paraquat as a standard herbicide for decades. The county's substantial Amish and Mennonite farming communities have particularly high occupational exposure due to traditional farming practices that involve more direct crop contact. Pennsylvania's 2-year statute of limitations under 42 Pa.C.S. § 5524 requires prompt action upon connecting a Parkinson's diagnosis to paraquat exposure. Claims proceed through MDL 3004.
