The Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation (MIDAGRI) continues its series of regional workshops aimed at strengthening the capacities of stakeholders in
the coffee and cacao value chains, within the framework of the National Strategy for the Implementation of the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
The event, held on October 22 and 23 in Satipo and Pichanaki respectively, brought together representatives from public institutions, cooperatives, producers, associations, and agribusinesses to analyze the progress, challenges, and opportunities arising from the implementation of this
regulation in Peru.
More than 110 participants attended the sessions at the Satipo Agrarian Coffee Cooperative and the ACPC Pichanaki Cooperative auditoriums, where they learned about the technical and environmental guidelines that will enable Peruvian producers to meet European requirements and maintain their competitiveness in international markets.
The EUDR, which will take effect in 2026, stipulates that products such as coffee, cacao, palm oil, cattle, soy, timber, and rubber may enter the European Union only if they meet three conditions: they must be free from deforestation, comply with the legislation of the country of origin, and include a due diligence statement. During the workshop, MIDAGRI presented the National Strategy on the EUDR Regulation, highlighting its three main pillars: information generation, clarification of the legal framework, and risk management in the due diligence process.
The National Forest and Wildlife Service (SERFOR) presented the Use Concession for Agroforestry Systems (CUSAF) mechanism, a legal instrument that formalizes agricultural, forestry, and livestock activities on forest and protection lands. Meanwhile, the General Directorate of Agrarian Environmental Affairs (DGAAA) explained the
scope of the Environmental Management Regulation for the Agrarian and Irrigation Sector (RGASAR), which establishes guidelines to ensure the environmental sustainability of agricultural and livestock investments in the country.
The event also featured participation from representatives of the Satipo Chamber of Commerce, Agromercado, SERFOR, Mishagro Cooperative, Río Amarillo Association, Kivinaki Cooperative, Los Chankas Cooperative, Finkafé Association, Agrop Selva Central Cooperative, ACPC Pichanaki, Montaña Bio Azul Association, Aconcafé, Mareriaki Association, and Natural Caffeterías, among other local organizations. This important event was supported by the Sustainable Agriculture for Forest Ecosystems (SAFE) project, co-financed by the European Union (EU), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (BZ) of the
Netherlands, and the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) of Germany. The project is implemented by the German Development Cooperation (GIZ) in collaboration with the ACPC Pichanaki Cooperative, the Satipo Agrarian Coffee Cooperative, and other organizations that worked together to ensure broad outreach and active participation from various sectors involved.
