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!
