World Milk Day

Ilimo observes ‘World Milk Day’

World Milk Day is an international day established by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations to recognize the importance of milk as a global food and its vital role in global food systems, providing economic, nutritional, and social benefits to a large proportion of the world’s population. 

The International Dairy Federation, a recognised international authority in the development of science-based standards for the dairy sector, say school milk programs are common in many countries around the world, for good reason.
