Question: are cows milked by hand?
Answer: Hand milking is a good way to way to bond with your cows. ... Getting that much milk out of a cow by hand takes time, maybe a 1/2-hour per cow or more and that whole time you are stuck under the cow and can't do anything else. If you milk your cows with a good machine milker, it takes about 5 to 10 minutes per cow.
