The total value of Irish primary beef exports in 2023 is estimated at €2.7 billion, which is an increase of 2% over 2022, according to Bord Bia’s Export Performance and Prospects report for 2023/24.
The report was launched yesterday (Wednesday, January 10) by the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Charlie McConalogue at Bord Bia’s offices in Dublin.
The report details that beef offal exports were valued at €140 million in 2023, up 3% on the previous year.
Irish factory cattle throughput is estimated to have decreased by more than 2% or 40,000 head at Irish meat plants in 2023, which contributed to a 3% decrease in the volume of beef exported. 489,000t of Irish beef was exported in 2023.
