# Deforestation Regulation: Seven Commodities Must Be Traceable to the Plot

> Germany's implementing law assigns oversight of the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) to the BLE, requiring companies to prove origin and deforestation-free status for cocoa, coffee, soy, cattle, palm oil, wood and rubber. The general application date is 30 December 2026, with a transition to 30 June 2027 for micro and small enterprises.

## Why it matters

Traceability to the plot adds compliance cost and may slow or segment EU-bound soy and palm oil flows, a modest bullish factor for compliant origins and a cost burden for importers.
