It's a punishment. You can't send a corporation to jail, you can only fine them. The Jury found that Monsanto committed fraud, and acted with malice. $1B is enough to hurt the corporate finances, very much by design.

What punishment do you think would be appropriate?

i agree, the punitive damages should be equivalent to a few years jailtime at least. it should equal the company not doing any business for a decade or so
