Extract

At the end of normal machine milking some milk, which cannot be removed unaided even by the most efficient milking machine, remains in the udder sinus. This milk, often some 10% of the total yield depending upon the age of the cow, udder shape, partial vacuum of the milking machine and teat-cup liner design, was formerly most frequently removed by hand. As a result of advice and encouragement farmers are rapidly changing to manipulation of the teat-cups, known as machine stripping. This practice has renewed interestin the old controversy about the effect of the method of stripping on udder health.
