Milking is an important task in dairy goat production. The quality of milking technology has a great influence on milk production and milk quality. The milking method is machine type milking and artificial milking. The developed countries in Europe and the United States have generally adopted milking machines. China's dairy goats have a small scale of production and generally use artificial milking. The number of milkings per day for dairy goats depends on the amount of milk produced: usually twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. For those who produce 5-8 kilograms of milk per day, they should squeeze 3 times a day. If there is more than 8 kilograms of milk, they should squeeze 4 times a day. The interval between milkings should be roughly equal. Goats and households with more dairy goats should have special milking parlors and milking racks. The milking parlour is located at one end of the sheep house, which is clean and sanitary, with sufficient light, fresh air, and no dust. The concrete floor should be laid so as to facilitate the cleaning and flushing of excrement and dirt. Milking goats with few dairy goats usually do not need special milking parlors and milking racks, but they should not be milked outdoors during windy weather. They should be milked in a clean room to prevent milk contamination. Before the milking, the long hairs around the breasts should be cut off, and the towels should be soaked in warm water of 40-50C. The breasts should be scrubbed, and the breasts should be put on both hands after drying. The breasts should be fully massaged, and the massage should be soft and brisk. During the milking process, it is required to massage 3 or 4 times for 0.5 minutes before, during and after the milking, which can quickly cause milk ejection reflexes, facilitate milk discharge and increase milk yield. After massage, the breasts should be milked immediately after the nipples are inflated. The first few milks should not be squeezed out, and then the milk should be quickly squeezed out with a quick movement and even speed, leaving no residual milk in the breasts so as not to affect milk production. Amount or formation of mastitis. The commonly used artificial milking methods include squeeze method (also known as fist grip method) and squeezing method (also known as finger squeeze method). Pressing method is more scientific, in line with the physiological characteristics of dairy goats and breast development, so it is more commonly used. Press method is suitable for medium or slightly longer milking nipples. Firstly, the thumb and forefinger are used to grip the base of the nipple to prevent backflow. The position of the hand does not move, and then the middle finger, ring finger, and small pointing palm are compressed in order to squeeze the milk out. When milking, the force should be even and the movements should be quick and easy. The grip and speed of the two hands must be the same, and the direction must be symmetrical so as to avoid causing breast deformity. Do not squeeze or relax at the same time during the milking process. For some teats with too small a teat, you can use a squeezing method to squeeze the base of your nipple with your thumb and forefinger and slide it from top to bottom to squeeze out the milk. For ewes with smaller initial nipples, the squeezing method should be used for milking after the teat is elongated. Regardless of the method of milking, the breasts should be massaged again in order to squeeze the milk. In addition, the milking parlour is required to be quiet and clean during milking. The milker's nails should be often trimmed to avoid damaging the breasts. At the same time, keep your hands, clothes and utensils clean and hygienic. In addition, the attitude toward the sheep must be moderate. Milking must be done regularly, according to a certain method and sequence milking. Do not disturb the milk when you are milking.
