Dairy Q&A


Question: 

Is it painful for the dairy  cow when being milked?


Answer:
No.
Milking a cow actually provides relief from the pressure of being full of milk. 
The milking machine applies a very gentle pressure on each teat in an alternating pattern.
Although every dairy farm may have a different type of milking equipment, milking the cow provides relief and comfort for the cow. Dairy farmers make sure their cows in the milking herd  are milked at least  twice a day, the same time every day, everyday of the year.
