FаrmPrо designed аnd supplied fаrming tооls for small-scale “market garden” farming operations focused on producing fresh vegetables, and only sold their products to commercial operations. The tools were powered by e-motors, with batteries charged by solar panels. One tool was an e-cart that hauled heavy loads of harvested vegetables, saving the farmer from the muscle fatigue of pulling the cart by hand. Another tool was an automatic potato digger, with a motor that forced an oscillating plow blade to the correct depth below the soil. The plow blade used the force of vibration to gently lift the potatoes to the surface without the need for hand-digging the heavy crop. FarmPro required all new users to complete an online training course in the correct operation of their tools, and a sales tech demonstrated the safe operation of each product with the purchaser and provided hands-on training before signing off on the final sales documents. All sales documents required purchasers to sign certifying that they had received adequate training in the safe operation of the equipment, and all sales documents included a disclaimer of liability for any misuses or modifications of the product. Products were sold with detailed instruction manuals with multiple warnings on the safe operation of equipment. Peter was an excited new farmer who had just bought 10 acres, eager to begin his first year of market gardening. Peter had some physical limitations, and was excited about what FarmPro tools could do to make farming physically manageable for him. He bought FarmPro’s e-cart and Farm Pro’s potato digger, as well as multiple batteries and the solar panel charging station. Unfortunately, Peter didn’t pay very close attention to the online training course before purchasing the equipment. He also was a little bit high while the sales tech demonstrated safe operation. Immediately upon bringing the equipment home, he made his first mistake: he installed the solar charging station in an area that was chronically wet and marshy, where puddles frequently formed, rather than on a slightly elevated area with at least three inches of gravel underfoot as instructed by FarmPro. FarmPro specifically warned about the risk of electric shock in its training manuals. Peter also did not instruct his part-time employee, Jeff, in the safe operation of the equipment, and Jeff tried to attach the oscillating plow blade to the e-cart for use in knocking down and “crimping” a cover crop – a task for which FarmPro developed and sold a separate product. FarmPro specifically warned about the dangers of misusing the equipment, but Jeff had not read the product manuals nor attended the trainings. Peter was injured by electric shock when he accessed the battery charging station after a heavy rain. Jeff was injured trying to use the e-cart and potato digger together as an improvised “crimping” tool. Is FarmPro liable for Peter’s injuries? Is FarmPro liable for Jeff’s injuries?
