- | The soy moratorium is a private sector agreement signed by the major soybean traders pledging not to purchase soy grown on cleared forestland after July 2006 in the Brazilian Amazon. During 2004 and 2005 30% of soy expansion in this region occurred through deforestation. In 2014, only about 1% of the new soy expansion in the Amazon biome was produced on recently deforested land. The soy moratorium is set to expire in May 2016. | + | The soy moratorium is a private sector agreement signed by the major soybean traders pledging not to purchase soy grown on cleared forestland after July 2006 in the Brazilian Amazon.

The soy moratorium for Amazonia has been extended indefinitely. |

The main analytical tool will be GLOBIOM-Brazil model, a global recursive dynamic partial equilibrium model that includes the main sectors competing for land (agriculture, forestry and bioenergy). It operates on 50 km x 50 km grid cells, and will provide large-scale regional impacts on deforestation, emissions, agriculture, livestock and wood production, exports and imports. Because of its multisectorial and multiregional construction, GLOBIOM-Brazil has been used as a valuable tool to analyze long-term land-use change scenarios and assess the impacts of land use policies. The idea is then to use the Forest Code scenarios built under the REDD-PAC project to assess the future impacts of soy moratorium by including and excluding constraints on conversion from mature forests to soy expansion. Counter-factual scenarios considering what happens without the soy moratorium will also be designed to measure the effects of this zero-deforestation agreement. | The main analytical tool will be GLOBIOM-Brazil model, a global recursive dynamic partial equilibrium model that includes the main sectors competing for land (agriculture, forestry and bioenergy).
