Female mammals, including cows, produce milk as a result of pregnancy in order to feed their young.

they don't have any volition in the matter. they produce milk. period. but they're not constantly pregnant.

According to google, they need to birth one calf a year after a 9 month pregnancy, so they are pregnant 3/4 of their adult life, that sounds close enough to constant. Also, did you need to make 5 different comments?

to be clear, it's not constant.
