More and more emphasis is being placed on the jurisdictional approach as a potential means to support corporate goals and drive sustainable development. The jurisdictional approach encourages companies to collaborate with local governments, communities and producers in their sourcing regions. By working together, the stakeholders ensure that local laws, regional efforts and corporate policies work in concert to catalyze reduced deforestation at the landscape scale, complementing supply chain efforts. Many companies have heard about the jurisdictional approach, but they need practical opportunities to prove the concept in first-mover jurisdictions. Mato Grosso is one such jurisdiction that is ready for engagement. From 2004 to 2014, the state demonstrated that it is possible to reduce deforestation while increasing productivity. This agricultural powerhouse produces nearly 30% of Brazil’s soy and has the largest cattle herd in Brazil, with more than 30 million cattle. Implemented by: Partner: Supported by:.
