It depends on the average size of the cattle. The amount of feed to feed cattle depend on their average weight and sex of cattle.

Older cattle eat more than younger cattle, and, thinner cattle eat more than fatter cattle. So with that, I cannot give you an accurate number.

It depends on the location, and the type or class of animals fed. There can be as little as no corn (0%) in a feed ration for cattle, or as much as 85% in a feed ration. Not all areas in the world can or will grow corn, and not all feed fed to cattle includes corn. For instance, much of the grain fed to cattle in Canada is barley or oats, not corn.
