Conventional dairies operate so that milk is being collected 365 days a year. However a lone milk cow herself cannot milk for 365 days; her period is primarily between 185 to 305 days. This of course depends on each cow, for one cow may go longer than another before eventually drying up.

The milking machines should tell you how much milk that the cow is giving each milking, times that by the amount of times she is milked in a day, then by the number of days in the month. This is a rough estimate as she may not give the exact amount of milk each milking.
