  3. 2. Mandating transparency on deforestation and ecosystem conversion

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Moritz Driescher; [2023]
    Nyckelord :sustainability reporting; mandatory disclosure; deforestation; ecosystem conversion; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The production of eggs, meat, and dairy products in the EU indirectly contributes to deforestation and ecosystem conversion (DEC) in Latin America due to extensive imports of soy for animal feed. This thesis explores under which preconditions the mandatory European Sustainability Reporting Standards for the agriculture and farming sector can increase transparency in the opaque soy supply chains and incentivize reductions of imported DEC.
