Bayer is sticking to its legal strategy of trying individual Roundup cases in court, even as a series of recent losses has some investors and plaintiffs’ lawyers questioning the wisdom of that approach.

In an attempt to get out from under the cloud of current Roundup-related litigation, Bayer announced Thursday it would stop using glyphosate in lawn and garden formulations in the U.S. starting in 2023.

Bayer is reportedly close to announcing a settlement of 50,000 to 85,000 lawsuits alleging exposure to its Roundup herbicide caused cancer.

Bayer is touting a new herbicide molecule that it says offers “the first new post-emergence mode of action for broad-acre weed control in 30 years.”
