Eliminating deforestation from the production of agricultural commodities: 2016 NYDF Assessment report

The 2016 NYDF Assessment report is dedicated to Goal 2 on eliminating deforestation from agricultural commodity supply chains. For the first time, this report aggregates, cross-references, and interprets data from a variety of disparate sources to provide a coherent picture of the “state of play” of efforts to ensure that agrocommodity supply chains are free of deforestation. The NYDF Assessment Partners developed a new framework that allows a comprehensive evaluation of supply-chain efforts taken by private and public actors, drawing on existing work and data from all partner organizations and filling in data gaps through company interviews.
