Can't answer that. It depends on the use of the animal, and condition. Some examples would be: Dry, or milking?, cart wether? meat?, pet?, breeding stock (buck), quality of hay?
Grain is not necessary for a simple backyard goat. It is necessary if the animal "works" in some way.

How much to feed a goat that is zero grazed?
I feed my goats morning and evening. I feed 1-2 cups of grain and a flake or two of alfalfa hay (they won't eat the grass hay, that's left for the other animals who share the pen). In the evening I'll give them another flake or two of hay, and if it's going to be really cold, I'll give them another cup of grain. The waterer is heated and I top it off every time I feed them.
