ii) Monthly averages<br />
• Highest average production per cow per day occurred in October<br />
The seasonal average figures presented in Table 4.5 are calculated using national monthly herd test averages, and are therefore affected by the<br />
number of samples processed. <strong>Statistics</strong> for May, June, and July are based on far fewer cows than the statistics for the other months, as only a<br />
few herds (generally winter milk herds) test in these months. Differences in climate between regions (which in turn can affect the mating<br />
period), available feed, and cow condition are reflected in differing months of peak production.<br />
Before September 1998, monthly herd test averages included all herds scheduled for four or more tests during the season. After this time all<br />
cows herd tested in each month were included, provided they were tested at least once during the season (Table 4.5).<br />
