Let's dive into the riddle!

• 吃进草，挤出宝， 
  chī jìn cǎo，jǐ chū bǎo，
  The first two lines, "吃进草，挤出宝," describe an animal that eats grass and produces something valuable. This suggests a farm animal that converts grass into a beneficial product.
• 养分给人民， 功劳真不小。 
  yǎng fèn gěi rén mín，gōng láo zhēn bù xiǎo。
  The next two lines, "养分给人民，功劳真不小," tell us that this animal provides nutrients to people and has a significant contribution. This clearly points to a dairy cow.

So, the answer to the riddle is a dairy cow-奶牛(nǎi niú)!
