"Green Folder" () refers to a document belonging to Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring which was presented in the Nuremberg Trials. This was the master policy directive for the economic exploitation of the conquered Soviet Union. The implications of this document were the deaths by starvation of millions of Slavic people, something that partially came to pass in the Holocaust, the neglect of Soviet soldiers captured by the Nazis which led to huge mortality rates, and the general expropriation of food in the occupied areas of the Soviet Union. It is also referred to as Document of the Soviet Prosecution, Exhibit USSR 10. Plan Oldenburg Plan "Oldenburg" (Göring's "Green Folder") was the code-name of the economic subsection of the planned attack on the Soviet Union. Following Hitler's issuance of Führer Directive 21, which ordered the invasion of the Soviet Union, Hitler instructed Göring to develop a plan for the future exploitation of conquered territory in the East.

Over the next two months the plan was fleshed out in detail and finally adopted on April 29, 1941 (protocol secret meeting 1157-PS). A headquarters was formed to coordinate the "Oldenburg" plan. According to the plan, the territory to be occupied in the Soviet Union would be divided into five economic Inspectorates, three of them attached to Army Group North (Leningrad), Army Group Centre (Moscow), and Army Group South (Kyiv), one for the Caucasus (Baku), and one held in reserve, with 23 economic commandants, as well as 12 offices.
