herbicide exposure, agricultural workers, neurological injury

Paraquat is a restricted-use herbicide. Litigation alleges that occupational exposure increases the risk of Parkinson’s disease, particularly among agricultural workers, applicators, and those living near heavy spraying.

Exposure pathways and biology

Plaintiffs’ experts have pointed to studies linking paraquat to dopaminergic neuron damage; defendants contest dose, route of exposure, and alternative etiologies such as genetics and aging.

Cases often turn on spray records, applicator licenses, proximity to treated fields, and consistency of symptom onset with exposure windows.
