80% of Brazil's major beef and leather companies have not committed to stop deforestation

The report reveals that approximately 80% of Brazil's leading beef and cow leather companies, along with their financiers, have no commitments to halt deforestation.

Despite being a major lever for deforestation, cattle farming shows a disturbing level of inaction from corporations and finance institutions within the Brazilian supply chains.

While JBS claims to commit to halting deforestation, it remains among the top buyers of cattle from lands that have recently been deforested.

The report emphasizes the urgent need for significant corporate accountability and commitment in addressing deforestation linked to Brazil's beef industry.
