Joint statement EUDR
European primary producers and various industries urge a delay of the entry into application of the EUDR
With less than 100 days left and no clear implementation tools, European primary producers and various industries urge a delay of the entry into application of the EUDR
The undersigned organisations, representing European primary producers and various industries in the scope of the EUDR fully support the goal of eradicating deforestation and forest degradation. We recognise the importance of global forests to combat climate change, preserve biodiversity, and secure sustainable raw materials and supply chains and our responsibility to preserve them.
Nevertheless, with less than 100 days remaining until the obligations for operators, traders, and Competent Authorities come into application, we are still grappling with severe legal and market uncertainties.
