About this ranking

Raw milk produced in the calendar year from cattle, buffaloes, goats, sheep and camels, in tonnes. FAOSTAT item "Milk; Total", the sum FAO calculates from the raw milk of each species.

All species: in India and Pakistan buffalo milk is a large share, so the figure is well above cow milk alone. FAO fills gaps in national reporting with its own estimates and imputations, which are marked as estimated, and revises past years when countries send new figures.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the countries are compared on one definition. 4 countries with data in other periods have no value for 2015 and are left out rather than filled from another source. Equal values share a rank.
