What types of solutions does GreenAnt offer for
sustainable agribusiness?

What is the EUDR?
In June, 2023, the EU adopted the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), which targets key commodities like
cattle, cocoa, coffee, and wood. The policy mandates that, after December 30, 2025, products and their derivatives entering the
EU market must be “deforestation-free”—not sourced from land that has been deforested since 2020—and comply with their
production country’s local laws.
What products are covered under the EUDR?
The EUDR applies to 7 key agricultural commodities and any derivative thereof. These 7 resources are the following:
Soy
Cattle
Coffee
Palm Oil
Timber
Cocoa
Rubber
Example products that will be affected by the regulation include leather goods, ground coffee, rubber-soled shoes, wooden
furniture, etc.
My company imports these products into the EU. What do I need to do to comply with the EUDR?
The EUDR requires companies exporting these products to the EU to present an official “Due Diligence Statement”—a document
that guarantees their products are deforestation-free—upon every export.
Companies bear the responsibility to conduct due diligence and ensure there is no deforestation along their products’ supply
chains. This involves mapping the supply chain, and identifying all actors involved in sourcing the product and assessing
deforestation rates of the land along the supply chain.
What happens if I don’t have an official EUDR Due Diligence Statement?
If companies don’t present a Due Diligence Statement via an accredited guarantor, they cannot export their products to the
EU. Updated due diligence statements must be presented each time a company exports a good.
How can GreenAnt's Desidera platform help my company comply with the EUDR?
Companies and organizations that import agricultural commodities into the EU can simplify EUDR compliance by leveraging
Desidera, GreenAnt’s proprietary satellite terrestrial data and AI platform. The EUDR mandates that companies provide Due
Diligence Statements produced by accredited guarantors verifying that a company’s products are “deforestation-free.” GreenAnt
can serve as your company’s EUDR-accredited guarantor. We use Desidera’s deforestation monitoring capability to assess the
land along your product’s supply chain and ensure that your products are deforestation-free. We then produce a compliance
certification that serves as this Due Diligence Statement. We not only produce these Due Diligence Statements, but we also submit
them to the EU behalf of your company, streamlining and simplifying your EUDR compliance process.
Desidera can also serve as a due diligence and deforestation risk mitigation tool. Companies who need to maintain EUDR
compliance can use Desidera to easily monitor the deforestation along their products’ supply chains in near-real time.
How much does an EUDR Due Diligence Statement cost?
It depends on the location and size of the land being certified. Please contact us for a free estimate.
