#WorldMilkDay raises public awareness about the importance of milk as part of a healthy and balanced diet. It also highlights the significance of the milk sector and milk producers, particularly the one billion people worldwide who earn their livelihoods from the dairy sector.

🎥 My thoughts on this morning’s ‘future of food’ conference 🌱🥩 We need to avoid creating ‘us versus them’ narratives, there is space in society for a diversity of diets. Let’s not get sucked in to culture wars as the only people to benefit from that are journalists!
