Deforestation Free Commodity Supply Chains in the Peruvian Amazon

Introduce sustainable (deforestation-free and profitable) commodity production models to reduce deforestation and land degradation caused by the ongoing increasing unsustainable production of agricultural commodities in critical economic-ecological jurisdictions in the north-western Amazon of Peru. To this end, the Project promotes responsible value chains and partnerships with major deforestation-free commodities (DFC) buyers. The strategy aims at reducing deforestation and degradation caused by increasing production of unsustainable agricultural commodities (coffee, cocoa, and palm oil) in critical economic-ecological jurisdictions in the NW Amazon: San Martin, Amazonas, Loreto, and Cajamarca. Consequently, this strategy will contribute to transforming commodity-related food systems in the Peruvian Amazon towards sustainability.
