Cows aren't super tall, nor is the occasional tractor. Why do barns often have roofs three stories high?

You need height if you want to build a structure with a large area and not a ton of internal columns for support.
slanted roof also gets the rain and snow off. there's a reason flat rooved architectural styles are more popular in warm, dry environments
There's more than cows and tractors in barns. Actually, there are infrequently cows in barns; they live in the fields. Barns are typically used to store hay, feed, seed, and tools, such as tractors and their implements, and to provide a dry area for working on equipment and for storing maintenance fluids for that equipment, such as oil and grease.
