es to the most recent USDA projections of 264.7 mmt ending
stocks and 35.9% ending stocks‐to‐use projected for “new crop” MY 2017/18. The present “large crop‐over

Last month, Ashley Ellixson and I described potential damages that farmers may claim in the event of a data
breach if fa … er testimony. In this

(meaning gross profits minus overhead and expenses required to run the business).
2. Reasonable royalty rate is determined by constructing a hypothetical negotiation for licensing
the trade secret, or farm data, between the parties at the time misappropriation began. The
law assumes this hypothetical negotiation occurred and that the farmer, who ordinarily would
not license his trade secret to the misappropriator, did so willingly for a bargained‐for price.
3. Unjust enrichment seeks to return the benefit the misappropriator gained from his actions to
the farmer.
First, before addressing the three sources of damages it is important to review how the different players benefit
from the big data system in agriculture. In our definition, the big data system is a network of many farms’ data
combined into a community dataset. In this community, the economics of networks are important. In the short
term, the aggregator(s) attempt to entice as many farmers to submit as many acres of data as they can
