Milk is a pale liquid produced by the mammary glands of mammals. It's the primary source of nutrition for infant mammals (including humans who breastfeed) before they are able to digest other types of food. Early-lactation milk contains colostrum, which carries the mother’s antibodies to its young and can lessen risk of many ailments. It contains many other nutrientsincluding protein and lactose. As an agricultural product, milk is extracted from non-human mammals during or soon after pregnancy. Dairy farms produced about 730 million tonnes of milk in 2011, from 260 million dairy cows. India is the world’s largest producer of milk, especially the leading exporter of skimmed milk powder, yet it exports few other milk products.The ever increasing rise in domestic demand for dairy products and a large demand-supply gap could final result in India being a net importer of dairy products in the future. The United States, India, China and Brazil are the world’s largest exporters of milk and milk equipment. China and Russia were the world’s largest importers of milk and dairy until 2016 when both countries became self-sufficient, causing a worldwide glut of milk
