Bunge has invested significant resources to create soy value chains underpinned by our commitment to be free of deforestation in 2025.
Given our progress toward 100% of traceability to farm for both direct and indirect sourcing of soy in priority regions, we have established the soy cutoff date for deforestation and conversion of natural vegetation as December 31, 2024.
This means we will no longer source soy from areas defined as at-risk of being deforested or where native vegetation has been turned into farmland due to soy cropping.
