contents In this paper, we prove a new gradient estimate for minimal graphs defined on domains of a complete manifold with Ricci curvature bounded from below. In particular, we show that positive, entire minimal graphs on manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature are constant, and that complete, parabolic manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below have the half-space property. We avoid the need of sectional curvature bounds on $M$ by exploiting a form of the Ahlfors-Khas'minskii duality in nonlinear potential theory.
