Farmers here. Of those that switched to 3x per day milking, in the long run are you glad you did it? Did the boost in gross revenue equal to or boost net revenue? If you had to decide all over again, would stay with 2x, or go to 3x? For those that are 2x, do want to go to 3x?

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

If you have the labor and parlor capacity, they say it pays. If you have a high group and a low group, i would start with the high group and see how it goes. Interesting, cows that have access to a robot and are in the early part of their lactation will get milked 5 or 6 times per day. Every once in a while, i get one who is really cranking, like 150lbs per day and i will milk her first and then milk her again right before i leave the barn so she never gets more than 10 hours of milk in her udder
