EUDR Compliance in Practice: Tools, Challenges and Implementation Strategies

About this survey

This survey is conducted as part of a study commissioned by the French Technical and Scientific Committee on Forests (CST-F) and carried out by the Alliance for the Preservation of Forests (APF), Canopée Forêts Vivantes and CIRAD. The objective of this study is to better understand how companies are preparing for the EUDR, the main operational challenges they face, and the solutions and practices currently being implemented across supply chains.

Purpose of the survey

The survey seeks to:

• estimate the level of preparedness of companies in terms of EUDR compliance;
• identify the tools and approaches currently used for EUDR compliance;
• better understand the challenges encountered by operators;
• identify good practices and innovative solutions;
• contribute to identify in-depth case studies and recommendations.

Confidentiality and data protection

Responses will be treated confidentially and analysed in aggregated form. No individual company will be identified in publications or reports without its prior consent. Only CIRAD will have access to the individual data collected; Other project partners will only receive aggregated and anonymised results.

Participation is voluntary. Respondents may choose not to answer specific questions. Data will be stored securely and used exclusively for the purposes of this study.

Before completing the survey

The survey should take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete.
