The Basic Set provides a practical guide for integrating biodiversity criteria into standards, corporate policies, and producer group requirements. It serves as a key reference for all stakeholders looking to incorporate biodiversity considerations into their processes.
The focus is on agricultural production—the first and most critical stage in the food industry’s supply chains in terms of biodiversity impact. By applying the Basic Set, companies and producers can reduce or prevent biodiversity-related risks, contributing to effective biodiversity protection.
For food industry companies, implementing the Basic Set not only enhances their biodiversity performance but also ensures compliance with new legal due diligence and reporting requirements.
