\u201cExport markets for Viet<\/strong>n<\/strong>am\u2019s agricultural and forestry commodities in light of the requirements <\/strong>of the <\/strong>EU for deforestation-free production (EUDR) and the potential for carbon credit market development<\/strong>\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

——————————————–<\/strong><\/p>\n

The seminar aims to update and share information on export market trends, including new requirements for deforestation-free production, and discuss their implications for Vietnam\u2019s agricultural and forestry commodity sectors. The seminar also aims to update and share information on how carbon markets operate, focusing on future opportunities and challenges for Vietnam\u2019s forest carbon market. Focusing on two key issues\u2014the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), which will take effect in early 2026, and the potential of the forest carbon credit market in the context of Vietnam\u2019s commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and striving to achieve net-zero by 2050\u2014the seminar will discuss solutions for reorganizing supply chains to ensure traceability, policy mechanisms that need to change, the roles of stakeholders in the chains, and forms of cooperation among producing farm households, dealers, and processing companies to meet traceability requirements, maintain export markets, and develop commodity sectors sustainably in the future.<\/p>\n
