On average a cow will consume 2% of her body weight in dry matter per day. Grass is usually 85% water (hence 15% dry matter). Thus, the calculations are as follows:
400 kg x 0.02 = 8 kg DM
8 kg DM / 0.15 DM in grass = 53.33 kg of grass as-fed per day.
Thus you can estimate a 400 kg cow may eat around 53 kg of grass per day.

The amount of grass a goat eats really depends on the breed. A Pygmy goat will eat up to 1/2 a pound of grass a day. A fainting goat eats only about 0.1 pounds of grass. So if you want a goat to mow your lawn for A Pygmy goat is the best.

How many tons of food does 1 cow eat per day?
Certainly not much, especially if you are going in terms of tons, not pounds (lbs). A 1000 lb cow with or without a calf will eat 25 lbs DM of forage per day. This amount changes with moisture content, so if the grass she eats has a 60% moisture content, she'll eat maybe around 40 lbs of grass per day, as fed. In terms of tons, that's 0.02 tons per day. If you were looking for a much bigger or grandioso number for how much a cow eats per day, it looks like you're plumb outta luck!
