Abstract

The effects of milking at unequal intervals for a complete lactation were studied with 82 cows of the Holstein, Ayrshire, and Brown Swiss breeds. They were milked at intervals of either 12.5 and 11.5 (Equal Intervals) or 14..5 and 9.5 (Unequal Intervals) during their tirst lactati, m, then switched to the alternative interwfls during the second lactation.
