I'm not too sure what you're asking here, whether you're asking about the time between heats or how long after birthing she'll be able to breed again. For the former, the answer is 21 days. After 21 days she'll go into estrus again if she didn't catch on the first try.
If you're asking about the latter, then you'll have to wait 45 to 60 days (longer if she's in poorer condition) in order to breed her after she's given birth, especially if a calf's on her.
The breeding male of a cow is called a bull.
Copulation lasts for only 1 to 3 seconds.
The breeding life span of a cow is typically around 10-12 years. However, factors such as breed, health, and reproductive efficiency can impact this timeframe. Cows are usually considered most productive in terms of breeding from around 2 years of age until they are 8-10 years old.
The best type of cow for breeding depends on the specific breeding goals an individual or farm has. Some popular beef cattle breeds for breeding include Angus, Hereford, and Simmental, while some popular dairy cattle breeds include Holstein, Jersey, and Guernsey. It is important to consider factors such as genetics, temperament, and desired traits when selecting a breed for breeding purposes.
Generally, a bull should be at least 12-15 months old before breeding to a cow, as younger bulls may not have reached full maturity and could struggle with mating. Breeding a 6 month old bull to a cow could result in unsuccessful mating, injury to the animals, or health issues for the offspring. It is advisable to wait until the bull is older and has reached breeding maturity before attempting mating.

A cow is a mature female bovine that has had a calf, so obviously she is already at the ripe age to be able to be bred, so long as she isn't pregnant already.
A good breeding operation should have a breed season of 60 to 80 days. Some operations will have a breeding season of 100 to 130 days, whereas still others have a year-round breeding and calving season.
Yes, breeding cows is considered as animal husbandry.

For one cow, it's usually 11 to 12 months in between each calving. For a cow-calf operation with defined breeding and calving seasons, it's always 12 months in between the start of one season to the start of the next.
