Progress in agricultural commodity supply chains is mixed, with certified sustainable palm oil growing by 18% globally, while certified sustainable soy represents only 2% of the market. Restoration efforts are underway, with 62.59 million hectares committed via the Bonn Challenge, though this is only 42% of the 2020 target. Financial flows for forest emission reductions have increased, with bilateral Official Development Assistance (ODA) rising from an annual average of USD 365 million (2002-07) to USD 744 million (2008-13), but actual REDD+ disbursements lag behind the USD 3 billion in commitments made between 2008 and 2014.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"fordecl-000038#summary","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},"key_insights":[{"text":"The New York Declaration on Forests (NYDF) aims to eliminate natural forest loss by 2030, with a target of a 50% reduction by 2020, and to restore 150 million hectares of degraded area by 2020 and an additional 200 million hectares by 2030.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"fordecl-000038#insight-1","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"While the annual loss of natural forested areas may be decreasing when forest regrowth is counted as compensation, there is no indication that the annual rate of deforestation or cutting of natural forests is actually reducing.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"fordecl-000038#insight-2","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Progress in sustainable agricultural commodities varies: certified sustainable palm oil grew by 18% in the global market, but certified sustainable soy accounts for only 2% of the global market, and no information is available for meat production.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"fordecl-000038#insight-3","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Global investment in the distribution of clean cookstoves increased significantly, peaking at USD 260 million in 2014, with distribution rates nearly doubling annually between 2008 and 2013.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"fordecl-000038#insight-4","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Forest restoration commitments under the Bonn Challenge reached 62.59 million hectares since 2011, representing approximately 42% of the 2020 goal.
