Each measuring unit captures individual animal data for herd management including milking time, duration of milking, milk yield, milk flow, guide value and behaviour of the animal during milking. The captured animal data is stored in the control device, and is processed and evaluated by the associated evaluation unit where the evaluation unit, by way of individual history data including health status, lactation status, reproduction status, number of lactations, milk yield history, milking times and time between milking pertaining to the identified animal, processes the animal data captured in milking the identified animal, so as to obtain statements about the total milk yield of the tota
