Panel Remarks On Liability: Liability For Farming?, Rachel G. Lattimore

Good afternoon. To begin, I’d like to thank Ed Wallis and the Richmond Journal of Law & Tech- nology for inviting me to speak on such a distinguished panel.

What I want to do is maybe give you more of a sense of perspective and then go over some of the facts.
