Trail 1 focuses on building the professional service network and digital infrastructure required to meet international compliance standards, such as the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
Ecopia Value Chain develops and sells digitalisation and certification-facilitation services to European and other international buyers. Its work supports farmer digitalisation, geographic information, production records, product traceability, and the organisation of relevant supply-chain information.
Ecocertification supports certification-related work and sponsors the development of this platform. However, the competent certification body remains responsible for certification decisions. Platform registration does not automatically establish certification or legal compliance.
This trail aims to develop a professional service network and open employment opportunities for African graduates. We are building a workforce capable of deploying, managing, and verifying agricultural data.
