EU Lamb Production

The European Union is as diversified as it is integrated, made up of unique climates and terroirs that are reflected in its lamb’s unique quality and taste. Since the beginning of recorded history, sheep farming has played an important role in Europe. From pre-industrial times, sheep have been an essential element in the European pastoral landscape, producing meat, milk and wool.

Today, we are committed to producing lamb in accordance with the highest quality, food safety and sustainability standards. EU lamb production is underpinned by strict EU food safety legislation, which is recognised as the most stringent worldwide.

Today sheep meat in the form of lamb is the primary output of value from the EU sheep flock. There are about 1 million sheep producers in the EU with Spain, Greece, France and Ireland being the main producing states.
