Implications of noncommutative field theories with commutator of the coordinates of the form $[x^{\mu},x^{\nu}]=i \Lambda_{\quad \omega}^{\mu \nu}x^{\omega}$with nilpotent structure constants are investigated. It is shown that a free quantum field theory is not affected by noncommutativity, but that invariance under translations is broken and hence the energy-momentum conservation is not respected. The new energy-momentum law is expressed by a Poincar\'e-invariant equation and the resulting kinematics is developed and applied to the astrophysical puzzle related with the observed violation of the GZK cutoff.
