Alfalfa Pellets [50 lb]

Alfalfa Pellets are a premium protein source of nutrition for animals needing maintenance to higher levels of digestible energy. Alfalfa is often the preferred forage for horses because of its high quality and good roughage value. Used as an animal feed, Alfalfa Pellets are an excellent nitrogen source (up to 5%). Also contains trace minerals and triacontanol, a naturally occurring plant growth promoter, which has been shown to improve the growth and yield of many crops. Alfalfa horse feed is low in sugar, moderately high in protein, high in calories and has digestible fiber. These horse feed pellets are low in carbohydrates and create minimal waste.

Feeding Guide

Alfalfa Pellets should be fed at ground level and can be sprinkled with water for animals that may have dental issues, feeding disorders or are prone to choke. Feed by weight and not by volume. 1-2% of a horse's weight should be fed daily in hay forages. This amount may vary depending on the animal's nutritional needs and level of activity.

• Make feed changes gradually over a period of 7 days. All forage grazing animals need long stem forage in their diets. When feeding bagged hay forage products, it is recommended that these products not be the animal's sole source of forage when long stem forage is needed for normal digestion processes.
• Consult your veterinarian or nutritionist to develop a total health care and nutritional program for your animal. All health care programs should include regular deworming, vaccination and dental care. The most important thing in a horse's diet is water. Provide plenty of fresh, clean water at all times.
