Is this soy legal?
Manage episode 378655988 series 3441488
Traders will struggle to prove that soy from Brazil complies with its environmental laws due to gaps in official data, according to new analysis by Trase and Instituto Centro de Vida (ICV). If it can't be proved that soy complies with national environmental regulations, this will impact international trade, especially to the EU because of the requirements made by the new EU Deforestation Regulation.
In this podcast, Trase and Global Canopy's Andre Vasconcelos, details the findings of the study; Andre Pereira Dias, the coordinator for geo-processing and environmental monitoring in the state of Mato Grosso outlines the data his state can offer; and Salima Kempenaer from the Federal Public Service for Public Health in Belgium, brings the perspective of an EU member state. The questions are asked by Jane Lino, from Proforest Brasil.
