Cattle feed refers to the food given to cattle to meet their nutritional requirements for maintenance, growth, reproduction, and milk production. It consists of a balanced combination of nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals.
Cattle feed is generally classified into roughages (like green fodder, hay, and silage) and concentrates (such as grains, oil cakes, and commercial feed). Roughages provide fiber, while concentrates supply energy and protein.

Proper cattle feeding improves animal health, increases milk yield, enhances growth, and ensures better productivity in dairy and livestock farming.
