What about raising the cow from a calf, though?

Most constituent lard is made from a pig. And pigs (while quite social) take pretty good care of themselves even if simply/only fed and watered. Depending on your environment, that might well be done by letting the pig go wander about and find feed and water.

What does that have to do with the time required?

Also, pretty sure we don't typically get milk from pigs.

feed and water are very expensive, as is the calf
