Castrating cows is often done to manage their reproduction, behavior, and growth. It can help reduce aggressive behavior, prevent unwanted breeding, and improve meat quality by reducing the risk of certain hormonal changes in the animal.
No you don't need to
Since a "Cow" is a female their is no such thing as cow elastration. Yes, you can use the elastrator method on any size bull, but the younger the better. The tetanus and penicillin shots are not necessary because no skin is being broken that might invite infection. Banding is a way to castrate a bull by cutting off the circulation to the testes and making them gangrene.
No. Technically a butcher cow is an old cull cow (mature female bovine that's been sold off a producer's main herd due to undesirable faults that make her not worth keeping), and as such doesn't need to be castrated. Butcher bulls don't need to be castrated prior to slaughter, since it'll be more stress on the animal to castrate (thus affecting the meat) than to not castrate.
