Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Milk is measured in pounds, not gallons, for the purpose of accuracy. It’s difficult to total the milk records in volumetric measurements – imagine having to add together 4 gallons, 3 quarts and 2 tablespoons in the morning, and 6 gallons, 1 quart, 3 pints and 2 teaspoons in the evening!

Detailed explanation-2: -Milk is a liquid. Liquids are measured either in litres (L) or millilitres (mL) . The litre is used to measure large volumes of liquid.

Detailed explanation-3: -As most payment systems are based on milk solid contents, it is more appropriate to measure the weight of milk (1 litre of milk on average weighs 1.031 kg).

Detailed explanation-4: -Major government and external data sources show that milk production per head is measured in units of weight like grams.
