A high level meeting will take place today between farmers and meat factory representatives.
Farmers claim the price paid for beef in Ireland is €350/head less here, than in the UK.
They're threatening a 48-hour demonstration from Sunday afternoon, which follows another protest last month outside meat factories.
The IFA President Eddie Downey says he expects some progress during today's talks, but thinks it's unlikely there will be full agreement on all issues.
