What agricultural commodity is a Nutrient Powerhouse?

Milk: A Nutrient Powerhouse

One glass of milk contains the same amount of calcium as three cups of broccoli, making it an excellent source of this essential mineral. Calcium is crucial for building and maintaining strong bones, and milk’s nutrient-rich profile supports overall health, making it a staple in diets worldwide.

The dairy industry is a vital part of agriculture, providing a reliable source of nutrition to millions of people. Dairy farmers work diligently to produce high-quality milk, ensuring that consumers have access to this important dietary component. About American Agri-Women:
