Throughout 2021 we have focused on building a constructive collaboration between the Soft Commodities Forum and the Consumer Goods Forum\u2019s Forest Positive Coalition Soy Working Group. With a shared trust and transparency mindset, we have reached the right balance between discussing long-term alignment on some of the most complex aspects linked to soy-driven deforestation and conversion and taking short-term actions on topics such as common monitoring rules and getting to an understanding on the realities and solutions to ecosystem risks in the Brazilian sourcing landscapes. <\/em><\/h4>\n
I truly believe that this new foundation will help us reach the necessary alignment between the key stakeholders along the soy supply chain and advance rapidly toward our common conversion-free and forest-positive goals.<\/em><\/h4>\n
The Soft Commodities Forum is one of the most well positioned and effective initiatives to tackle deforestation and conversion today. We are interested in understanding from a very practical standpoint how we could implement our model investment deforestation policy together. Firstly, examining how ready traders and their supply chain are to implement and report on the asks of the policy, particularly regarding traceability.
