Detailed explanation-1: -Dairy farmers use milking machines to milk their cows 2-3 times per day. It only takes 5-7 minutes for a cow to be milked!
Detailed explanation-2: -Most dairy cows are milked two to three times per day. On average, a cow will produce six to seven gallons of milk each day.
Detailed explanation-3: -Most farmers milk their cows twice a day, but in a robotic milking system cows sometimes choose to be milked four to five times a day. This doesn’t necessarily mean that they are producing more milk, nor is it uncomfortable for them-calves would naturally feed at four to six hourly intervals.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cows milked three times a day had fewer days to first breeding than their twice daily counterparts. First lactation cows milked three times daily had more days to last breeding, more breedings, and consequently, more days open than cows milked twice a day.
