The European Parliament adopted its first-reading amendments to the Deforestation Regulation on 13 September 2022, covering a proposal to restrict EU market access and exports of commodities linked to deforestation. The text repeals Regulation 995/2010 and was tabled as report A9-0219/2022.
Trade restrictions tied to deforestation could reshape EU sourcing of soy, palm oil, and other feed inputs, with traceability demands potentially raising costs and tightening supply for feed buyers.
