Project Description
The project supports global market-transformation efforts and the adoption
of better management practices related to biodiversity in four target
commodity sectors: palm oil, soybeans, sugarcane, and cocoa. The
objectives are 1) a strong enabling environment to support cost-effective
biodiversity preservation at all levels of the value chain; 2)
biodiversity-friendly production practices and on-farm processing; 3)
increased mainstream demand for commodities produced using
biodiversity-friendly techniques; and 4) recognition by financial
institutions of the economic benefits of such production methods and
practices.
