Major soy traders have not publicly detailed their readiness for the EU Deforestation Regulation, though industry experts say they are operationally prepared. Certification bodies such as ProTerra and VISEC are helping the sector comply.
The regulation requires proof that products are not linked to land deforested after 2020.
Traders' preparedness determines whether compliant soy can keep flowing to the EU without a price premium or supply disruption. Limited public detail leaves the market impact uncertain.
After 554 past neutral policy events, Soybeans moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.6%), and +0.6% over 20.
