The article gives an overview of the EUDR, which covers seven commodities: cattle, cocoa, coffee, natural rubber, palm oil, soy and timber. It explains that the regulation applies to products produced after 29 June 2023 and extends to semi-processed derivatives such as leather and beef.

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.
After 102 past neutral policy events, Live Cattle moved a median +0.6% over 5 sessions (63% higher; middle half -0.7% to +1.2%), and +1.3% over 20.
