We are witnessing many unintended negative consequences of the EU's Deforestation Regulation: A regulation passed with good intentions is turning into a train wreck for smallholder farmers, national exports, consumers - and event for the forests it was meant to protect!

According to @FeedtheFuture 'Close to 2/3 of #African #women are employed in #agrifood systems in roles ranging from #farmers to #agrodealers to #educators to #traders.' #EUDR will have a direct impact on their #livelihoods and famlies. #deforestation #InternationalWomensDay

#EUDR requires operators & #traders to collect geographic coordinates of the plots where a #commodity was produced and ensure full #traceability & segregation down to the #farm level. The obligation applies to large companies from 12/30/2024 and to European #SMEs from mid-2025.

Big coffee farmers are seeing benefits from the EU's Due Diligence Regulation, but #Ethiopia's smallholders face a dramatic fall in sales to Europe. #EUDR's uneven impact highlighs the need for #equitable support & adaptation strategies. #EUDR #CoffeeTrade #SmallholderChallenge

The #transition to compliance with the #EUDR is a significant challenge but also an opportunity to drive the global #agri sector towards more #sustainable and #regenerative practices. Ensuring that #smallholders are not left behind is crucial for the success of these #regulations

"We #export 50%, #EUDR requirements are unique and most farmers are not fully aware of how to comply. If we are denied to export to #EU,then where else can we sell to? We have started certification process but most #cooperatives have not started." Ugandan #coffee #farmer

The Prime Minister of Barbados, @miaamormottley shared a clear message about #EUDR : it's crucial to consider the potential consequences of such regulations on #smallholder #coffee #farmers and other vulnerable #communities.

The EUDR clock is ticking. Big food companies who aren’t compliant with the EU Deforestation Regulation by the end of this year face penalties, fines, and loss of EU trade. Find out how we can you help make the deadline at https://t.co/0nny0vpQ6G. #Risk. #EUDR. #Compliance.

When I wrote my @gdnlongread about masks (https://t.co/nrNfolXTis), I hadn't learned about the most egregious instance of American bullying: that the Covid-19 aid it's giving out can't be used to buy masks, because that cuts into US purchases of masks 1/

Isn't this always the case: Bigots who lust pathetically after muscular nationalism are so cowardly that they can't even take the idea of peaceful protest. They have to snap public transport links, suspend the Internet, implement 144. Despicable.
