Sustainable Dairy from the EU/Ireland: Ireland's dairy production is rooted in family-run farms, benefiting from a temperate climate and abundant rainfall, allowing Irish cattle to graze on grass for 240 days, with 95% of their diet being grass.

In 2022, Ireland was ranked second on the Global Food Security Index (GFSI), considering issues related to affordability, availability, and quality of food, as well as safety standards, natural resources, and resilience.
