What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is presenting a challenge to coffee and rubber growers in India. The regulation requires detailed evidence of traceability, geolocation, legality of production, and deforestation-free status. The United Planters Association of Southern India (UPASI) has suggested the government engage with the EU to seek a practical and proportionate implementation of the norms.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

UPASI views the EUDR as a non-tariff barrier to trade. Meeting the compliance requirements across thousands of small and fragmented holdings involves substantial costs and technical capacity needs. The lack of digital access among small growers further complicates compliance with the new standards.

Sustainability standards are now required for Indian agri-exports entering EU/UK markets, and Indian produce has begun reaching European markets.
