TL;DR Summary

A jury has ordered Bayer, the parent company of Monsanto, to pay $2.25 billion in damages after finding that the weed killer Roundup caused a man's non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The jury concluded that Roundup was a cancer-causing product and that Monsanto was negligent in warning about its dangers. Bayer plans to appeal the verdict, citing scientific evidence and regulatory assessments that contradict the jury's findings. This is the latest development in a series of legal battles over Roundup, despite previous settlements and conflicting assessments from different regulatory bodies.
