USDA is partnering with attorneys general in 31 states to address anticompetitive market conditions in agriculture. The state attorneys general will now have additional authority to conduct investigations into price gouging, conflicts of interest and anticompetitive behavior in the food and agriculture sectors. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison is part of this effort and said unfair markets in agriculture result in artificially high prices. The Minnesota AG’s Office is part of a lawsuit that claims Syngenta and Corteva excludes generic competitors with its customer loyalty programs.
