De volledige officiële Engelstalige maatregel, risicocontext, verifier en brondocumenten staan hieronder als brongebonden feiten. ## Engelse samenvatting > Verify, through review of associated documents and, where necessary, field verification, that wood originating from genetically modified organisms (GMOs), including material from trial plots, is not included in the supply chain, in accordance with FSC requirements. For example: 1. Documentation review a) Supply area boundaries are compared against available information on GMO trial locations to identify any potential overlap or proximity, applying a precautionary approach to avoid sourcing from areas associated with GMO trials. 2. - Canonical entity URI: - Schema.org type: `CreativeWork` ## Trefwoorden FSC, Risk Assessment, Risk Mitigation, FSC-RA-BRA-02-2026, indicator 64, Others ## Kenmerken - FSC risk indicator: 64. There is no commercial use of GMO. — [bron]() - Risk conclusion: Non-negligible risk — [bron]() - Geopolitical scale: Brazil — [bron]() - Source type: Forest Plantation-public, Forest Plantation-private, Forest Plantation-SLIMF — [bron]() - Risk threshold: 64. 1.     GMO use is legal, according to applicable legislation of the area under assessment; — [bron]() - Description of risk: The use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs), including trees, is legal in Brazil under Law No. 11.105/2005, with authorization from CTNBio. Since 2015, approvals have included transgenic eucalyptus strains for enhanced yield, herbicide tolerance, and insect resistance. While no commercial GMO plantations currently exist (only experimental ones), the legal framework permits their use, meeting the risk threshold for GMO use in the assessed area. — [bron]() - Type of verifier: Others — [bron]() - Mitigation requirement level: Recommended — [bron]() - Associated documents: CNTBIO commercial permits — [bron]() - Risk mitigation measure: Verify, through review of associated documents and, where necessary, field verification, that wood originating from genetically modified organisms (GMOs), including material from trial plots, is not included in the supply chain, in accordance with FSC requirements. For example: 1. Documentation review a) Supply area boundaries are compared against available information on GMO trial locations to identify any potential overlap or proximity, applying a precautionary approach to avoid sourcing from areas associated with GMO trials. 2. Field verification a) Where suppliers operate in areas associated with authorized GMO trials, field visits are conducted to verify that sourcing areas do not include GMO trial plots; b) Evidence observed in the field supports the conclusion that wood supplied does not originate from genetically modified organisms. — [bron]() - Other relevant information: Wood originating from genetically modified organisms (GMOs), including material from experimental or trial plots, is not permitted within the FSC system. Although there is no evidence of commercial GMO plantations in the country and GMO use is currently limited to experimental trials, the existing legal framework allows the use of GMOs in forestry. As a result, the risk threshold is considered met, based on the legal permissibility of GMO use, despite the absence of documented commercial production. — [bron]() - Source workbook row: 65 — [bron]() ## Relaties - Onderdeel van: [FSC Risk Assessment voor Brazilië — 2-0]() (`isPartOf`) - Over: [Brazilië]() (`about`) - Over: [FSC Risk Assessment indicator 64 — There is no commercial use of GMO.]() (`about`) - Over: [Brazilië: FSC-indicator 64 — non-negligible risk]() (`about`) - Vermeldt: [Mitigation measure onder het FSC Risk Assessment Framework]() (`mentions`) - Vermeldt: [Non-negligible risk onder het FSC Risk Assessment Framework]() (`mentions`) - Vermeldt: [Forest Plantation-public — FSC Risk Assessment Brazilië]() (`mentions`) - Vermeldt: [Forest Plantation-private — FSC Risk Assessment Brazilië]() (`mentions`) - Vermeldt: [Forest Plantation-SLIMF — FSC Risk Assessment Brazilië]() (`mentions`) ## Identificaties - FSC Risk Mitigation row: `FSC-RA-BRA-02-2026 row 65` — [resolver]() - FSC risk indicator: `64` — [resolver]() ## Bronnen - [Bron](): Official FSC Risk Assessment FSC-RA-BRA-02-2026; Risk Mitigation worksheet row 65. ## Andere representaties - [HTML]() - [Schema.org JSON-LD]() - [Volledig RDF JSON-LD]() - [Turtle]()
