Original: The European Union Deforestation Regulation’s Uneven Impact: Who Is Exposed and What Are the Costs?

New analysis examines how the EU Deforestation Regulation affects different producers and supply chains, identifying which companies and countries face the greatest exposure and what compliance costs they will bear.

Commentators say the burden falls unevenly, raising concerns for smallholder farmers and exporting nations.
