The EU’s plan to ban products linked to deforestation is in jeopardy.

After hard-fought wins by environmentalists, the #EUDR has been delayed for a second time. This delay is part of a bigger backlash against environmental policy in the EU.

Costa Rica’s head start may mask tougher EUDR road ahead Costa Rica’s famous coffee industry says it’s nearly ready for EUDR. The upcoming European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requires that all coffee shipped into the EU not come from recently def...

Costa Rica’s coffee sector is preparing for the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), which will require coffee entering the EU to be verified as deforestation-free.

Automatic, scalable, and independent of national governments, it can help understand deforestation drivers, shape effective policy measures, and track compliance with regulations like the EUDR.

🌳In a letter to Jessika Roswall, ECH President Vladimír Dlohý calls for the #EUDR #simplification rev. to:
✅ Apply the once-only principle
✅ Eliminate residual compliance obligations for downstream operators
✅Create de minimis thresholds
✅ Introduce “Zero-risk” category

The cost of compliance with the EUDR will limit its impact on reducing deforestation (commentary) The production of food continues to eat its way into the world’s tropical forests. Agricultural expansion drives nearly 90% of global deforestation, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization ...

"Positive change can be achieved if market supply chain initiatives align with and reinforce strong public policies in tropical forest nations to ensure economic viability and competitiveness on both sides."

New Episode of the EULAS Weaving Paths Podcast: Can EU trade policy reduce deforestation beyond Europe’s borders? In our latest episode, we welcome Dr. Alan Leal (Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro) to discuss how two major EU instruments - the EU Deforestation-Free Products Regulation (EUDR) and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) - are reshaping EU–Latin America trade relations and influencing environmental governance on the ground in Brazil. At the heart of the conversation is Alan’s newly released research (February, 2026): “EUDR and Deforestation in Brazil: Are Producers Anticipating the European Deforestation-Free Regulation?” Co-authored with Ana Flávia Trevizan, Michelle Márcia Viana Martins and Network partner Carmen Fonseca of Universidade Nova de Lisboa, the study offers one of the most detailed empirical assessments to date of the EUDR’s early effects. Using 2015–2024 municipal-level data covering nearly all Brazilian municipalities, the paper combines: - High-resolution deforestation data - Agricultural land-use data - A novel spatial export allocation method linking exports to production locations rather than trader headquarters The research examines whether municipalities more exposed to EU-bound exports show changes in deforestation trends in anticipation of the EUDR - providing rare empirical insight into the real-world reach of EU climate regulation. hashtag#EUDR hashtag#CBAM hashtag#trade hashtag#deforestation hashtag#sustainability hashtag#latinamerica hashtag#brussels hashtag#globalgovernance Climate Policy Initiative Climate Policy Initiative/PUC-Rio Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals School of Economics, Business and Accounting at the University of São Paulo SSRN Universidade Federal de Viçosa Universidade Nova de Lisboa

This week, FTAO's @virginiaenssle.bsky.social joined the @eesc.bsky.social at the 4th EU–Viet Nam DAG-to-DAG meeting.

We highlighted how #EUDR is impacting smallholder farmers & cooperatives, shared Fair Trade perspectives & called for stronger EU support, technical assistance and clearer guidance.

Thousands of Kenya’s Smallholder Coffee Farmers Risk Losing EU Market as Deforestation Law Takes Effect NYERI, Kenya, January 21 (IPS) - For the last twenty years, Sarah Nyaga, a smallholder farmer from Embu County in central Kenya, has farmed coffee. Like most across Kenya, she relies on the export market. A greater percentage of Kenya’s coffee ends up within the European Union market, but a new law threatens to disrupt what has been a source of income for thousands of farmers like Nyaga.
