Choking Of Milking Machine Pulsators, G R. Olney Jan 1967

Choking Of Milking Machine Pulsators, G R. Olney

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE value of applying the teat cup squeezing action more slowly, by "choking", has been well demonstrated for a number of years.

Leslie and Whittlestone (1938) suggested that brutal teat cups and snappy pulsators could be undesirable because of the trauma caused.

Choking was recommended by them to overcome this.
