A Jeffers, Minnesota farmer is facing three years in prison for defrauding organic grain customers. The fraud case began in 2014 when James Wolf allegedly purchased biotech corn and soybeans and represented the crop as organic when it was sold to a broker in Pennsylvania. Wolf’s nephew, Adam Olson, was also sentenced to two years of supervised probation and 100 hours of community service for signing crop insurance paperwork that claimed the fields were certified as organic.
