Like any animal that is bred for food there is always a requirement to increase production, or "yield".

If I have a dairy cow I can milk once a day then I get X pence/cents for that milk. If I have a dairy cow I can milk four times a day then I get 4 x X pence/cents for that milk.

There's also a question of disease resistance and fertility that can be considered when breeding animals to improve the species for farming purposes.

paturized I'm not entirely sure what this question is asking, but if the question is, "Is milk pasteurized or homogenized on the farm or at the dairy?", then the answer is -- at the dairy. Only the largest of dairy farms, the ones that include their own dairy, would be able to perform either of these processes.
