What the source says
In 2024, the vast majority of raw milk was delivered to dairies; only 11.0 million tonnes were used on farms, either being consumed by the farmer and his family, sold directly to consumers, used as feed or processed directly.
Checked: the figure 11 million tonnes is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
