It depends in the breed!

If you are talking about dairy cows the average Holstein Cow weights 1,300lbs give or take a couple hundred pounds. But that is for a mature cow.

Dairy cows usually have their first calf at about 2 years old and not considered mature until they are about 5 or 6 years old!!!

Cows only start producing milk when they have their first calf.

Holsteins are the most common dairy cows in the world and the biggest and largest of the dairy cows.

Jerseys are much smaller for example!

How much green fodder is required for a Holstein cow per day in KG?

That all depends on the type and consistency of this "green fodder," its nutrient quality/value, what you are feeding in addition to the fodder, the moisture level of the fodder, and, for the cow, the weight of the Holstein, if she's dry or lactating, what stage of lactation she is in (if she is lactating), and her age. As such, this question cannot be answerable without providing more information and details in such a way to provide answers to the aforementioned factors and variables.
