Fern published a discussion paper examining what the EU can learn from its regulation of illegal timber, conflict minerals and illegal fishing. The paper is intended to inform new EU measures on forest-risk commodities such as soy, palm oil, beef, leather and cocoa.
Possible EU rules on deforestation-linked soy and palm oil could eventually restrict supply or add compliance costs for feed-relevant oilseed and meal trade, but the paper is advocacy with no immediate policy decision.
