They're calling for legal threats against farmers to be dropped.
The first meeting of the Beef Market Taskforce has been postponed - after chaotic scenes outside the Department of Agriculture.
The talks were due to take place between state agencies and farmer groups following a deal struck last month in the long-running dispute.
But some farmers jeered and shoved representatives from Meat Industry Ireland, stopping them getting into the building.
Minister for Agriculture Michael Creed has condemned the angry scenes - and says it's a "great pity" farmer representatives chose not to air their concerns at the taskforce.
These farmers don't think the talks should take place until all legal threats against farmers are lifted:
