The Rainforest Alliance is ready to leverage its <strong>strong certification and due diligence tools to help its coffee and cocoa partners comply with the EUDR<\/strong> by then. Companies and, by association, the farmers they source from will need to be prepared to prove that their products do not come from deforested land. The Rainforest Alliance is making the necessary adjustments to ensure that systems and tools can meet the needs of the EUDR in two key areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>For farmers: Addition of criteria.<\/strong> From January 15, 2024, farmers will be able to select specific criteria in the Rainforest Alliance Certification Platform (RACP) that are aligned with EUDR requirements.<\/li>\n<li><strong>For companies: Evidence to support compliance.<\/strong> By December 30, 2024, all supply chain stakeholders &#8211; including producers, importers, manufacturers, brands and retailers sourcing Rainforest Alliance Certified cocoa or coffee through identity preserved or mixed identity supply chains &#8211; will have the ability to identify agricultural certificate holders who have selected EUDR criteria in RACP. Users can choose to access the data (including precise geolocation data) needed to comply with their EUDR obligations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>RAINFOREST ALLIANCE 2020 x Certisys<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As of January 2023 Certisys can audit and certify under the Rainforest Alliance 2020 program .
