Maine Dairy 'Somewhat Vindicated' As Monsanto Leaves Bovine Hormone Business

PORTLAND, Maine - Oakhurst Dairy owner Stanley Bennett welcomed the news that Monsanto was divesting itself of its controversial dairy hormone business, after taking on the agribusiness giant in an expensive David-and-Goliath legal battle five years ago."We feel somewhat vindicated, given our position," Bennett said. "I'd like to think that, in some small part, we played a role in that decision."

The lawsuit centered on Oakhurst Dairy's label, which read: "Our Farmers' Pledge: No Artificial Growth Hormones Used."
