Preferred by Nature holds seminar to educate agricultural stakeholders on EU’s new deforestation law

Preferred by Nature recently hosted a seminar aimed at informing agricultural stakeholders about the European Union's new deforestation regulation, which is set to reshape global trade dynamics. The event gathered farmers, exporters, and industry representatives to discuss the implications of this legislation, designed to curb deforestation linked to agricultural products imported into the EU.

Experts highlighted that compliance with the law will require thorough traceability across supply chains. This means that producers must demonstrate their goods are sourced from land not involved in deforestation after 2020. Attendees were urged to adapt practices that align with sustainability goals while also considering market demands.

The seminar provided a platform for knowledge sharing and collaboration among stakeholders, emphasizing the importance of sustainable agriculture in preserving ecosystems. As international markets increasingly prioritize environmental responsibility, participants recognized the need for proactive measures in adapting to these regulatory changes. Ultimately, this initiative aims not only to meet legal requirements but also to foster a more sustainable future for agriculture globally.
