EU agriculture ministers are meeting in Dublin on September 6-8, according to the Irish presidency's programme. Livestock farming is the central topic, alongside sustainable production, competitiveness and the resilience of rural communities.

Ireland's agriculture minister, Martin Heydon, chairs the gathering, which brings together national ministers, the European Commission and senior officials. Monday's schedule sets aside time for site visits; working sessions follow on Tuesday.

A press conference is scheduled for September 8. The published programme describes an informal discussion, not an agreed change in farming rules. Any policy outcome should be assessed against the subsequent official statements.
