The School Milk list is a service of FAO’s Trade and Markets Division
Hello Everyone,
On the occasion of the celebration on 30 September 2015 of the World School Milk Day – promoted by The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (UN) – the interbranch organization of the Spanish dairy industry, Inlac, prepared some events in Spain focused on the benefits and properties of dairy products. The five regions selected (Madrid, Oviedo, Santiago de Compostela, Sevilla and Valladolid), all of them key for the industry, embraced the idea with much enthusiasm.
This year marks the first time in Spain. During the events, a recognized chef of each region taught children about healthy recipes based on dairy products. In addition, a nutritionist explained them the benefits and properties of milk in childhood. The idea was to have fun while learning. In each city, institutional representatives, including the Minister of Agriculture, attended.
On the other hand, Inlac took advantage of this special date to communicate in a national level the figures extracted from its recent survey about dairy products consumption habits in Spain.
Best regards,
