This may be a stupid question, however, if anyone knows the answer,
please indulge me.

What is the average daily output of a dairy cow (in gallons)? I
realize there are many factors involve. I'm just looking for a rough
estimate.

For a UK cow calving mid jan (in the '60's) this is the typical
production at month end. Animal milks for 305 days and dry for 60 days.
