In the story below, Gina McColl quotes that cows in a Milking Robot are milked up to five times a day\u2026I wish I could find the breed of cows that you can milk that many times\u2026Gina, try approximately three times a day by the robot and the farmer does not need to be home for this to happen.<\/p>\n
Also she quotes \u201cand drug regime when they are sick\u201d what she forgets to mention is that the robot knows which cows are on medication and separates their milk from the rest.<\/p>\n
Yes in Europe and now China, cows are housed in sheds, this is mainly due to the weather and the sheds keeps them from the harsh winters, plus especially in Europe the land is required for crop production to feed the cows, so they keep them in sheds. It also helps in effluent disposal, keeping the herd in a restricted area.<\/p>\n
It should be remembered, cows not in a robot environment are milked twice a day, because this is what the farmer wants, however, when a cow is milked by a robot, that cow can come into the robot (of her own free will) when she starts to get uncomfortable and full of milk. This will happen on average 3 to 3.5 times per day (over a twenty four hour time span) and the milk harvested from the robot will be better for you as the cows are under less stress and are more content and relaxed.<\/p>\n
To answer Gina\u2019s question\u2026Yes I would be happy to put Robot harvested milk over my Weet-Bix, because I believe it is better milk and better for you.<\/p>\n
