My comment would be if the farmer in question was to do relief milking
somewhere else and take the time and care he/she would on their own farm
what sort of money would they want? in other words you get what you pay for.
$50/60 per a 2/3 hour milking would be in the ball park although a while
since I've had dealings with it.
