Creating a Pathway to
Combating Deforestation in the Amazon
Since 2004
CARGILL AND THE NATURE CONSERVANCY have been pioneering a pragmatic, market-based approach to reducing Amazonian deforestation even as soy production
in Brazil increases to meet growing global demand. BRAZIL has become a global
leader in SOY PRODUCTION
Cargill’s Santarém terminal improves soy growers’
ACCESS to EXPORT MARKETS
begins in 2004
Cargill commits to
BUYING SOYBEANS only from farms enrolled in the
RURAL ENVIRONMENTAL REGISTRY (CAR)
On farms enrolled in CAR, deforestation is monitored from space via satellite
Today, 100% of the SOY CARGILL BUYS AT SANTARÉM is from farms enrolled in CAR and monitored by satellite

BRAZIL has shown it is possible to DECREASE DEFORESTATION while INCREASING SOYBEAN PRODUCTION
MAY 2014: Presidential decree requires all farms and ranches to be registered in CAR, extending monitoring capability nationwide
