The present invention concerns a fodder containing at least one type of grain crop, and a process for its manufacture, in which fodder the contents and identities of high-energy components have been optimized, whereby the main component in the fodder, in addition to the grain crop, is microcellulose, most suitably having a narrow particle size distribution, which microcellulose has been found to be digested in a particularly advantageous manner in the stomach of an animal, particularly the rumen of a ruminant, such as a cow.
