    Milk is a white, nutrient-rich liquid produced in the mammary glands of mammals and is the primary source of nutrition for infant mammals before they can digest other foods. It contains antibodies, protein, lactose and other nutrients. While milk is intended for infant mammals, humans also consume milk from other mammals. As an agricultural product, milk is extracted from farm animals during or after pregnancy. In 2011, dairy farms produced over 730 million tonnes of milk globally from 260 million dairy cows.
