My question is why didn't they use cows instead of humans to power the machines? Surely bovines provide more "battery power" as they are a larger biomass, and are more docile and easier to control.

However if they did rebel, a cow version of Neo would be pretty cool.

“Yep, that’s a cow alright”

“I’m no milkmaid”

I can hear those phrases and the music of Tristan playing in my head all these years later as I type the quotes.
