Development of the selected standards

This chapter examines the selected sustainability standards on an aggregate level, considering the full range of commodities each standard certified (and not only the selected nine commodities covered in this report). For this purpose, this chapter focuses on variables for which an aggregation across commodities is meaningful – namely, a standard’s certified area and its producers/certificate holders.

Sustainable Development Goals:

Zero Hunger

Decent Work and Economic Growth

Responsible Consumption and Production
