\nCompany aims to reduce deforestation risk in its global supply chain
\n<\/h2>\n
\n

SPRINGDALE, Ark., Nov. 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tyson Foods, Inc. (NYSE: TSN) today announced a Forest Protection Standard focused on reducing deforestation risk in its global supply chain of four commodities \u2013 cattle and beef; soy; palm oil; and pulp, paper and packaging.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Tyson Foods partnered with Proforest<\/a> to conduct a deforestation risk assessment. The assessment concluded that nearly 94 percent of the company\u2019s land footprint is at no to low risk of being associated with deforestation. To proactively address the remaining six percent that was found to be at risk, the Forest Protection Standard was developed to ensure the company is continuing to target the reduction of deforestation risk throughout the global supply chain.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs one of the world\u2019s largest food companies and a recognized leader in protein, we have an important role in protecting forests and other natural ecosystems,\u201d said Dean Banks, Tyson Foods president and CEO. \u201cWe are asserting our ambition to make protein more sustainable and look forward to working with our supply chain partners, customers and other stakeholders to do our part on this important issue.\u201d<\/p>\n

To support the Forest Protection <\/a>Standard<\/a>, specific Commodity Action Plans are being developed to outline the work required in each commodity area to support deforestation free sourcing. Progress towards meeting the goals of the Forest Protection Standard will be outlined in the company\u2019s annual Sustainability Report.<\/p>\n

Tyson Foods is a member of the United Nations Global Compact and supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG) and its 2030 agenda for sustainable development. Tyson Foods Forest Protection Standard aligns with three SDGs including Goal 12 – Responsible Consumption and Production; Goal 13 – Climate Action; and Goal 15 – Life on Land.
