It depends on your area, and what type of land you're putting them in. If it's a feedlot, you can have at least 10 per acre. If it's on pasture, it may range from 1 per acre to 0.1/acre (or 10 acres/cow).

Average Fodder requirement per cow which gives 15 Kilogram of Milk/Day will be around 20-25 Kilograms. That is 110 Tons/ year.

If you cultivate Fodder Grass like Co3 0r Co4, average yield per acre is 180 Tons/ year.

So, You can grow Two cows with an yield of 10,800 Kilograms of Milk/Year in one Acre of Forage.

A heifer is typically 0.5 to 0.67 AUs, since she would be smaller than a cow (AU for 1000 lb cow = 1 AU). The amount of acres needed to feed her depends on where you live, the conditions of your pastures, how long you are grazing her for, among many other factors. Check out the other questions below for more info on stocking rates and such.
