National Hay
Directory and forage information in video and article format plus
national sources of hay for cattle, horses and farm livestock.
Forage is an important part of a horse’s diet
since horses are grazing animals and require a diet that is high in fiber.
And, forages such as hay and pasture grasses are the primary source of fiber in a horse’s diet.
Hay
Hay is the most common forage fed to horses. It is important to choose high-quality hay that is free from dust, mold, and weeds. The type of hay fed to horses depends on the horse’s age, weight, and activity level.
Pasture grasses are another important source of forage for horses. Accordingly,
horses should have access to pasture grasses for at least 12 hours a day. It is important to ensure that the pasture grasses are free from toxic plants and that the pasture is not overgrazed.

excellent substitute for alfalfa in southern

Beef Cattle Feed, Forage and
Nutrition
When feeding cattle what matters most is the nutrients
that forage does not provide. Forages often must be supplemented with
energy or protein to meet the nutritional needs of
cattle.
Drought conditions result in poor hay and pasture production and rising feed costs. Often, horse owners are forced to find alternative feed sources to either stretch their limited hay supply, or completely replace it.
Here are some ideas on how to augment your hay
supplies.
