The UK government has announced the introduction of new anti-deforestation rules for Great Britain. These measures are designed to tackle the environmental impact of specific commodity trades.
According to FoodNavigator Europe, the regulations will focus on soy, rubber, palm oil, cocoa and coffee. The rules will apply across Great Britain, while Northern Ireland will continue to follow the EUDR standards.
While the specific details of the legislation have not yet been finalised, the move signals a commitment to reducing deforestation within the supply chains of these key ingredients.
