World Milk Day
June 1
World Milk Day is on Saturday 1st June 2024.
In 2001, World Milk Day was established by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations to recognize the importance of milk as a global food, and to celebrate the dairy sector. Each year since, the benefits of milk and dairy products have been actively promoted around the world, including how dairy supports the livelihoods of one billion people.
This year’s theme will focus on celebrating the vital role dairy plays in delivering quality nutrition to nourish the world. Dairy is an accessible, affordable, and nutrient-dense food, and an essential part of balanced diets across the world.
Catch up on the activities on our social media channels and use our hashtags #WorldMilkDay & #EnjoyDairy.
World Milk Day wants to encourage short videos from farmers that showcase sustainability practices in place on your farm or at your company. You can help by developing these short videos, and sharing them on social media as we re-introduce dairy farmers to the world.
