The animals might serve multiple purposes (for example, as a draught animal for pulling a <a href="/wiki/Plow" class="mw-redirect" title="Plow">plow</a> as a youngster, and at the end of its useful life as meat). In this case, the animals were normally milked by hand and the herd size was quite small, so that all of the animals could be milked in less than an hour—about 10 per milker. These tasks were performed by a <i>dairymaid</i> (<i>dairywoman</i>) or <i>dairyman</i>. The word <i>dairy</i> harkens back to Middle English <i>dayerie</i>, <i>deyerie</i>, from <i>deye</i> (female servant or dairymaid) and further back to Old English <i>dæge</i> (kneader of bread). </p><p>With <a href="/wiki/Industrial_Revolution" title="Industrial Revolution">industrialisation</a> and urbanisation, the supply of milk became a commercial industry, with specialised <a href="/wiki/List_of_breeds_of_cattle" class="mw-redirect" title="List of breeds of cattle">breeds of cattle</a> being developed for dairy, as distinct from beef or <a href="/wiki/Working_animals#Animals_used_for_their_strength" class="mw-redirect" title="Working animals">draught</a> animals.

People milked the animals by hand; on farms where only small numbers are kept, hand-milking may still be practised. Hand-milking is accomplished by grasping the <a href="/wiki/Teat" title="Teat">teats</a> (often pronounced <i>tit</i> or <i>tits</i>) in the hand and expressing milk either by squeezing the fingers progressively, from the <a href="/wiki/Udder" title="Udder">udder</a> end to the tip, or by squeezing the teat between thumb and index finger, then moving the hand downward from udder towards the end of the teat. The action of the hand or fingers is designed to close off the milk duct at the udder (upper) end and, by the movement of the fingers, close the duct progressively to the tip to express the trapped milk. Each half or quarter of the udder is emptied one milk-duct capacity at a time. </p><p>The <i>stripping</i> action is repeated, using both hands for speed. Both methods result in the milk that was trapped in the <a href="/wiki/Milk_duct" class="mw-redirect" title="Milk duct">milk duct</a> being squirted out the end into a bucket that is supported between the knees (or rests on the ground) of the milker, who usually sits on a low stool. </p><p>Traditionally the cow, or cows, would stand in the <a href="/wiki/Field_(agriculture)" title="Field (agriculture)">field</a> or paddock while being milked.

One person could milk more cows this way, as many as 20 for a skilled worker. But having cows standing about in the yard and shed waiting to be milked is not good for the cow, as she needs as much time in the paddock grazing as is possible. It is usual to restrict the twice-daily milking to a maximum of an hour and a half each time. It makes no difference whether one milks 10 or 1000 cows, the milking time should not exceed a total of about three hours each day for any cow as they should be in stalls and laying down as long as possible to increase comfort which will in turn aid in milk production. A cow is physically milked for only about 10 minutes a day depending on her milk letdown time and the number of milkings per day. </p><p>As <a href="/wiki/Herd" title="Herd">herd</a> sizes increased there was more need to have efficient milking machines, sheds, milk-storage facilities (<a href="/wiki/Bulk_tank" title="Bulk tank">vats</a>), bulk-milk transport and shed cleaning capabilities and the means of getting cows from paddock to shed and back. </p><p>As herd numbers increased so did the problems of <a href="/wiki/Animal_health" class="mw-redirect" title="Animal health">animal health</a>. In New Zealand two approaches to this problem have been used. The first was improved <a href="/wiki/Veterinary_medicine" title="Veterinary medicine">veterinary medicines</a> (and the government regulation of the medicines) that the farmer could use. The other was the creation of <i>veterinary clubs</i> where groups of farmers would employ a <a href="/wiki/Veterinary_medicine" title="Veterinary medicine">veterinarian</a> (vet) full-time and share those services throughout the year. It was in the vet's interest to keep the animals healthy and reduce the number of calls from farmers, rather than to ensure that the farmer needed to call for service and pay regularly. </p><p>This daily milking routine goes on for about 300 to 320 days per year that the cow stays in milk. Some small herds are milked once a day for about the last 20 days of the production cycle but this is not usual for large herds. If a cow is left unmilked just once she is likely to reduce milk-production almost immediately and the rest of the season may see her <i>dried off</i> (giving no milk) and still consuming feed. However, once-a-day milking is now being practised more widely in New Zealand for profit and lifestyle reasons. This is effective because the fall in milk yield is at least partially offset by labour and cost savings from milking once per day. This compares to some intensive farm systems in the United States that milk three or more times per day due to higher milk yields per cow and lower marginal <a href="/wiki/Labour_costs" class="mw-redirect" title="Labour costs">labour costs</a>. </p><p>Farmers who are contracted to supply liquid milk for human consumption (as opposed to milk for processing into butter, cheese, and so on—see milk) often have to manage their <a href="/wiki/Herd" title="Herd">herd</a> so that the contracted number of cows are in milk the year round, or the required minimum milk output is maintained. This is done by mating cows outside their natural mating time so that the period when each cow in the herd is giving maximum production is in rotation throughout the year. </p><p>Northern hemisphere farmers who keep cows in barns almost all the year usually manage their herds to give continuous production of milk so that they get paid all year round. In the southern hemisphere the <a href="/wiki/Cooperative" title="Cooperative">cooperative</a> dairying systems allow for two months of no productivity because their systems are designed to take advantage of maximum grass and milk production in the spring and because the milk processing plants pay bonuses in the dry (winter) season to carry the farmers through the mid-winter break from milking. It also means that cows have a rest from milk production when they are most heavily pregnant. Some year-round milk farms are penalised financially for <a href="/wiki/Overproduction" title="Overproduction">overproduction</a> at any time in the year by being unable to sell their overproduction at current prices. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Artificial_insemination" title="Artificial insemination">Artificial insemination</a> (AI) is common in all high-production herds in order to improve the genetics of the female offspring which will be raised for replacements.

One early model was patented in 1907.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The milking unit is the portion of a milking machine for removing milk from an udder. It is made up of a claw, four teatcups, (Shells and rubber liners) long milk tube, long pulsation tube, and a pulsator. The claw is an assembly that connects the short pulse tubes and short milk tubes from the teatcups to the long pulse tube and long milk tube. (Cluster assembly) Claws are commonly made of stainless steel or plastic or both. Teatcups are composed of a rigid outer shell (stainless steel or plastic) that holds a soft inner liner or <i>inflation</i>. Transparent sections in the shell may allow viewing of liner collapse and milk flow. The annular space between the shell and liner is called the pulse chamber. </p><p>Milking machines work in a way that is different from hand milking or calf suckling. Continuous vacuum is applied inside the soft liner to massage milk from the teat by creating a pressure difference across the teat canal (or opening at the end of the teat). Vacuum also helps keep the machine attached to the cow. The vacuum applied to the teat causes congestion of teat tissues (accumulation of blood and other fluids). Atmospheric air is admitted into the pulsation chamber about once per second (the pulsation rate) to allow the liner to collapse around the end of teat and relieve congestion in the teat tissue. The ratio of the time that the liner is open (milking phase) and closed (rest phase) is called the pulsation ratio. </p><p>The four streams of milk from the teatcups are usually combined in the claw and transported to the milkline, or the collection bucket (usually sized to the output of one cow) in a single milk hose. Milk is then transported (manually in buckets) or with a combination of airflow and mechanical <a href="/wiki/Pump" title="Pump">pump</a> to a central storage <a href="/wiki/Storage_tank" title="Storage tank">vat</a> or <a href="/wiki/Bulk_tank" title="Bulk tank">bulk tank</a>. Milk is refrigerated on the farm in most countries either by passing through a <a href="/wiki/Heat-exchanger" class="mw-redirect" title="Heat-exchanger">heat-exchanger</a> or in the bulk tank, or both. </p><p>The photo to the right shows a bucket milking system with the stainless steel bucket visible on the far side of the cow. The two rigid stainless steel teatcup shells applied to the front two quarters of the udder are visible. The top of the flexible liner is visible at the top of the shells as are the short milk tubes and short pulsation tubes extending from the bottom of the shells to the claw. The bottom of the claw is transparent to allow observation of milk flow. When milking is completed the vacuum to the milking unit is shut off and the teatcups are removed. </p><p>Milking machines keep the milk enclosed and safe from external contamination. The interior 'milk contact' surfaces of the machine are kept clean by a manual or automated washing procedures implemented after milking is completed. Milk contact surfaces must comply with regulations requiring food-grade materials (typically <a href="/wiki/Stainless_steel" title="Stainless steel">stainless steel</a> and special plastics and rubber compounds) and are easily cleaned. </p><p>Most milking machines are powered by <a href="/wiki/Electrical_power_industry" class="mw-redirect" title="Electrical power industry">electricity</a> but, in case of electrical failure, there can be an alternative means of motive power, often an <a href="/wiki/Internal_combustion_engine" title="Internal combustion engine">internal combustion engine</a>, for the vacuum and milk pumps.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

The building was a long, narrow, <i>lean-to</i> shed that was open along one long side. The cows were held in a yard at the open side and when they were about to be milked, they were positioned in one of the bails (stalls). Usually, the cows were restrained in the bail with a breech chain and a rope to restrain the outer back leg. The cow could not move about excessively and the milker could expect not to be kicked or trampled while sitting on a (three-legged) stool and milking into a bucket. When each cow was finished, she backed out into the yard again. The UK bail, initially developed by Wiltshire dairy farmer Arthur Hosier, was a six standing mobile shed with steps that the cow mounted, so the herdsman did not have to bend so low. The milking equipment was much as today, a vacuum from a pump, pulsators, a claw-piece with pipes leading to the four shells and liners that stimulate and suck the milk from the teat. The milk went into churns, via a cooler. </p><p>As herd sizes increased a door was set into the front of each bail so that when the milking was done for any cow the milker could, after undoing the leg-rope and with a remote link, open the door and allow her to exit to the pasture. The door was closed, the next cow walked into the bail and was secured. When milking machines were introduced bails were set in pairs so that a cow was being milked in one paired bail while the other could be prepared for milking. When one was finished the machine's cups are swapped to the other cow. This is the same as for <i>Swingover Milking Parlours</i> as described below except that the cups are loaded on the udder from the side. As herd numbers increased it was easier to double-up the cup-sets and milk both cows simultaneously than to increase the number of bails. About 50 cows an hour can be milked in a shed with 8 bails by one person. Using the same teat cups for successive cows has the danger of transmitting infection, mastitis, from one cow to another. Some farmers have devised their own ways to disinfect the clusters between cows.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

A "good" rotary will be operated with 24–32 (~48–50+) stalls by one (two) milkers. The turntable is turned by an electric-motor drive at a rate that one turn is the time for a cow to be milked completely. As an empty stall passes the entrance a cow steps on, facing the center, and rotates with the turntable. The next cow moves into the next vacant stall and so on. The operator, or milker, cleans the teats, attaches the cups and does any other feeding or whatever husbanding operations that are necessary. Cows are milked as the platform rotates. The milker, or an automatic device, removes the milking machine cups and the cow backs out and leaves at an exit just before the entrance.

A computer can read the eartag of each animal to ration the correct individual supplement.
