Mr. Mattingly, a well-to-do farmer, has a legal right to apply pesticides to his fruit trees. One year, he decided to hire a cro

p-dusting airplane to spread a pesticide on his orchard. An unexpected gust of wind blew the chemical onto a neighbor's beehives, killing all the bees.

Mattingly argued that a good fruit farmer has to apply pesticides and that the crop duster had exercised extreme caution in applying the chemicals. How would you decide this case? Explain your answer

How might industrilization lead to cultural clashes and discrimination?
svlad2 [7]
