EU Nature Restoration Law — Nature Data Reporting
Biodiversity, ecosystem condition, land use — how to prepare for mandatory nature data reporting
The EU Nature Restoration Law is the first comprehensive EU legislative act that sets binding targets for nature restoration — not just protection, but active ecosystem restoration. The Regulation entered into force in August 2024.
www.bargo.lv (SIA BARGO) provides purpose-built software for nature data reporting — combining bargo.lv regimes (ESRS E4, CSDDD) with the Project Nidos specialised nature data platform. We implement systems, not just advise.
EU Nature Restoration Law — What You Need to Know
Reference: bargo.lv — homepage — "Audit-defensible software and research for regulated EU domains."
Key targets by 2030:
• Restore 20% of EU land and sea areas
• By 2050 — restore all ecosystems in need of restoration
• Member States must submit National Restoration Plans by 2026
For businesses: The Regulation introduces an obligation for large companies and financial market participants to report on their impact on nature — via ESRS E4 (Biodiversity and Ecosystems) and CSDDD (Supply Chain Due Diligence).
What does "nature data" mean?
• Biodiversity indicators (species count, invasive species)
• Ecosystem condition (area, structure, functions)
• Land-use changes (construction, agriculture, forestry)
• Supply chain dependence on natural resources
ESRS E4 — Biodiversity and Ecosystems
Reference: bargo.lv regime 01 (under CSRD/ESRS) — ESRS E4 is part of the ESRS standards set.
ESRS E4 is the European Sustainability Reporting Standard specifically dedicated to biodiversity and ecosystems. Companies must disclose:
• Impact assessment: how the company's activities impact biodiversity (directly and indirectly)
• Dependencies: the extent to which the company depends on ecosystem services
• Risks and opportunities: physical risks (floods, soil erosion), transition risks (regulation), systemic risks
• Mitigation measures: what actions are taken to reduce negative impacts

CSDDD — Supply Chain Due Diligence
Reference: bargo.lv regime 02 — Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive.
CSDDD (adopted 2024) requires large companies to conduct due diligence across their entire supply chain regarding human rights and environmental risks — including nature degradation.
Companies must identify, prevent, mitigate, and report on adverse impacts on nature in their supply chains. This includes:
• Deforestation risks (linked to EUDR — EU Deforestation Regulation)
• Water resource use
• Soil degradation
• Pollution
Phased entry into force from 2027 (depending on company size).
How Project Nidos Helps with Nature Data Reporting
Reference: bargo.lv — 8-regime manifest covers both CSRD/ESRS (including E4) and CSDDD.
The Project Nidos platform specialises specifically in nature data:
• Biodiversity impact assessments — quantitative, auditable
• Ecosystem condition monitoring — area, structure, functions
• Land-use change accounting — from satellite data to field surveys
• Supply chain nature risk analysis — CSDDD-compatible
• Report generation — for ESRS E4 and National Restoration Plan requirements

Does this apply to your company?
If your company falls within the CSRD scope (>250 employees, >€50M turnover or >€25M balance sheet), ESRS E4 reporting is mandatory. If your supply chain touches agriculture, forestry, construction, or food — nature data will become your daily reality.
