The aim of this paper was to evaluate the performance of breeding cows kept on 7 farms with robotised milking in relation to the breed (Bohemia Spotted cattle, Holstein), number of milking units (from 1 to 8 robots) and type of ownership (private, cooperative). All farms used Lely Astronaut A3 robots. The companies showed significant differences in average daily milk performance (from 21.04 kg of milk/head/day to 40.43 kg of milk/head/day). Small private companies with one robot reached significantly higher milk yield (28.79 kg of milk/head/day) than the other types of companies. On average, milk yield of the Holstein cattle was higher than that of the Bohemia Spotted cattle (29.97 kg vs. 22.80 kg, respectively). The average number of milkings per head and day in individual companies ranged from 1.97 to 2.67. The average number of rejections per head and day (1.11) was low in companies with one robot. It was influenced by the number of cows per one robot. Bohemia Spotted cattle showed the lowest number of cows needing to be accompanied to the robot (8.8%).
