How can you order a farmer to destroy their trees? I hope he fights in a higher court. Wish I’d heard about the nectarine giveaway. I’d have gone to pick some.

The article doesn’t explain the judge’s reasoning for this ruling, and I am struggling to understand why the judge would do this. The whole court case is due to Giumarra Brothers Fruit Company being unhappy that they were not receiving 100% of the nectarines from the trees that they licensed to the farmer. So how does destroying the trees help anyone?
It does seem like it’s just a punishment for being generous.
It’s fine, we’re just over here producing the same absurdities that (much) later result in clumsy-sounding stories like “and then the question became, to whom goes the bigger portion of the baby being split? jk what does the posing and response to the question itself reveal? for fucks sake how bad does this have to be, to stir us or anyone to do differently?”
I guess I added the bit on at the end.
