MIDAGRI highlights progress in the implementation of the EUDR during “Altamira Summit 2025”
The Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation (MIDAGRI) actively participated in the Altamira Summit 2025, an international event organized by the Team Europe Initiative (TEI) on Deforestation-Free Value Chains, held from November 3 to 7 in Altamira, Pará (Brazil). The summit brings together representatives from 26 countries across Latin America, Africa, Asia, and Europe to address global challenges and strategies for sustainable transitions in productive chains.
During the meeting, MIDAGRI presented Peru's progress in implementing the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), highlighting key challenges, lessons learned, and achievements in agricultural traceability and information management.
One of the advances showcased was the Agrarian Producers Registry, a strategic tool for identifying and characterizing more than two and a half million producers in the country. Through the Agrodigital application, up to 38 relevant variables are collected, with the recent addition of parcel geolocation, enabling the identification of native language, access to financing, technical assistance, seeds, irrigation, membership in peasant communities, among other essential data for planning public policies and sustainable supply chains.
The Altamira Summit is recognized as an official event preceding COP 30 (Conference of the Parties) and serves as a technical exchange platform to strengthen international cooperation, build capacities, and consolidate deforestation-free production models.
Peru's participation in the Altamira Summit 2025 is supported by the Sustainable Agriculture for Forest Ecosystems (SAFE) project, co-financed by the European Union (EU), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands (BZ), and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). SAFE is led by MIDAGRI and implemented by German Development Cooperation (GIZ) GmbH.
