As a member of its leadership, Nutreco has, over the past year, supported the SoS to review and reframe its theory of change including acknowledging the need to engage more directly with soy traders and to step up its global voice on the need for an urgent shift to deforestation and conversion-free soy production in the Cerrado biome. SoS activities over the past year have delivered against this new theory of change including supporting NGO calls for the Cerrado Working Group (GTC) to be re-established.
Skretting was instrumental in leading the engagement of soy protein concentrate producers to make a Cerrado biome-wide deforestation and conversion-free sourcing commitment from August 2020. This milestone was further enhanced when French retail SoS members set their own January 2020 cut-off date for the French market.
