Effects of teat measurement and teat shape on milking time, milk flow rate and milk yield in Brown Swiss cows were evaluated. The means of 305-day milk yield for cylindrical, funnel and bottle teat shape groups were 3156, 3169 and 2377 kg, respectively. The mean values for the milking time in 1(st), 2(nd) and 3(rd) milk yield groups were 6.54, 6.56 and 6.20 min and the differences were not statistically significant.
