🌳With the EU’s anti-deforestation regulations set to come into effect in spring 2023, coffee professionals need to be aware of what these new laws mean for them. Naturally, these new EU regulations have major consequences for those working in the export and production of coffee. It’s already difficult to accurately know just how much deforestation is taking place in a supply chain, or if it’s taking place at all. However, industry professionals looking to export to the EU will now have to prove the production of their coffee results in no deforestation following December 31st 2020. Dimitra is here to help. In line with this, more and more coffee professionals are relying on technology and data platforms to map and detect deforestation, as well as to prove compliance with these new laws. 📖 Read more to learn why deforestation in coffee production is a prominent issue, and how Dimitra provides a solution: https://perfectdailygrind.com/2023/05/how-can-coffee-comply-with-new-eu-deforestation-regulations/
