Nuhn Industries Files Patent Lawsuit Against Bazooka Farmstar & Bazooka Dealer

According to a complaint filed July 20 in the Southern District of Iowa, Canadian manure equipment manufacturer Nuhn Industries has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Iowa-based manure injector and auger manufacturer Bazooka Farmstar.

The lawsuit claims Bazooka Farmstar's Wolverine Agitation Boat infringes on Nuhn Industries' patent No. 11,358,425, which covers its Lagoon Crawler amphibious agitation vehicle, saying, "Defendant has made, used, sold, and/or offered for sale products, including its Wolverine Series Agitation Boat, that infringe one or more claims of the ‘425 Patent."

A separate lawsuit filed by Nuhn Industries on Nov. 16, 2021, in Wisconsin against Bazooka Farmstar and Tasch's Custom LLC — a Bazooka Farmstar dealer in Malone, Wis. — alleges another instance of infringement against Nuhn's patent No. 10,974,557, which also relates to Nuhn's Lagoon Crawler and Bazooka's Wolverine Agitation Boat.
