The daily milk production of the highest milk-producing cow can range from 50 to 100 pounds per day.
Breast milk typically contains around 1-1.5 protein, while cow's milk has a higher protein content of about 3-3.5.
The hormone responsible for milk production in lactating individuals is called prolactin.

Yes, but for best milk production yearly breeding is advised.
Milk can be supplied to more people using fewer animals.
Udder size is heritable, yes. This is quantified by milk production: as we've seen in dairy cows, the larger the udder the more milk a cow will (or should) produce.
Ayrshire cow can produce milk 5000 - 16000 kg/year. In 2006 Finland Ayrshire cows average milk production was 8 472 kg of milk. Fat-% was 4.29, and protein-% 3.46
