The EU Grain Chain
The EU Grain Chain
Embedded Files
COCERAL, FEDIOL and FEFAC members represent a sizable share of the EU grain, oilseed and feed value chain. Grain and oilseed traders, oilseed processors, and compound feed manufacturers are delivering 100% of the soy in the form of soybean, soybean meals or compound feed used by farmers, food processors and other industries. We are supportive of legislative measures that are reinforcing actions to tackle deforestation and land conversion on the ground.
Purpose
Purpose
Our associations help to drive change for a more sustainable, deforestation-free soy supply chain. In this on-line tool, we present relevant information on existing challenges, on actions taken and progress in the sustainable transformation of the soy supply chain. It is meant to support membership and other engaged stakeholders with available studies, evidence, relevant reference documents and communication tools.
