Due to the lack of a reliable source of data on worldwide cattle population, and the number of variables affecting how often an individual cow will give birth it is extremely hard to provide an accurate figure for births/minute.

How many bulls should you have on a farm?
It depends, Many dairies have no bulls on the farm and all breeding is done by artificial insemination. Most small farms only need one bull, especially if the bull is with the cows all year round and you don't have a defined breeding season. Things you need to take into account though are the age of the bull and if the cows are synchronized. You also need to account for how much land the cow are out on. If the bull is two years old you want to give him about 20 cows. Three or four year olds could probably have up to 40 cows. You definitely don't want to go over 50 cows. If the bull is old you probably want to decrease cows too. If the cows are syncronized you need more bulls because the cows are all coming into heat about the same time. You probably want to have 10-15 cows per bull. If the cows are out on range and it is difficult for them to move around you need less cows per bull. You also want to have your bulls tested each year for venereal diseases, semen count and motility. Also watch for lameness and if they are in good shape going into the breeding season. If he can't get to the cows then he can't breed them. One last thing if you are on a small farm with only one bull make sure you don't breed him to his daughters or granddaughters! Try AI, or a new bull or sell all related heifers.
