# Soy traceability advances, but grain origin still challenges Brazil

> Brazil has monitoring systems and production-origin data, but linking farm-level information to the soy volumes transported, stored and processed remains difficult. The challenge is to maintain traceability and prevent compliant soy from being mixed with goods that do not meet the EU Deforestation Regulation, which is due to apply from 30 December 2026.

## Why it matters

The need to segregate and document soy through the supply chain could raise Brazilian storage and transport costs and complicate exports to the EU. Those added costs may support a modest premium for compliant soy.
