The European regulation on deforestation
Detalles
By the end of 2024, the obligations established by the new European regulation on deforestation will become enforceable, which will impact the import and export into and from the EU of certain products made from cattle, cocoa, coffee, oil palm, rubber, soybeans and timber. With exceptions, their marketers must carry out the relevant risk assessments.

This is the agenda of the day, which will feature the intervention of representatives of the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge and experts from the following offices: Posse Herrera Ruiz (Colombia), Payet (Peru), Beccar Varela (Argentina), Creel (Mexico) and Cariola (Chile).
