Mixed Hay - Feed Ingredient
Mixed hay refers to baled forage composed of a combination of grass and legume species, commonly including varieties such as timothy, orchardgrass, brome, alfalfa, or clover. The specific composition of mixed hay can vary depending on regional availability, planting practices, and harvesting stages.
In equine nutrition, mixed hay serves as a primary source of fiber, providing structural carbohydrates that support hindgut fermentation and digestive health. The inclusion of legumes like alfalfa can increase the protein, calcium, and energy content of the hay compared to pure grass hay.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Mixed Hay as an ingredient.
