Livestock production accounts for 40% of agricultural production with a value of 214 billion EUR.

Omissions

• The specific figure of EUR 214 billion for livestock production could not be independently verified from a primary source in the available search results. The total agricultural output figure of EUR 531.9 billion is from 2024 data published in November 2025. The exact share of livestock production within total agricultural output should be verified against Eurostat's official agricultural economic accounts.
• Source publication date (November 2025) is after the session date (April 2026) - this is acceptable as the data refers to 2024, which is before the session date.
• The MEP did not specify the year of the data, which would improve precision.
