1st Cutting Orchard-Alfalfa (60/40) – Steady Nutrition With a Leafy Boost
This 1st cutting Orchard-Alfalfa blend (60/40) offers a thoughtful balance between rich alfalfa leaf and classic orchardgrass fiber. It’s a great choice for horses who benefit from a small amount of alfalfa in their diet without jumping to high-calorie forage. Its nutritional profile supports steady condition and mild workloads, while remaining approachable for horses sensitive to sugar.
The orchardgrass adds roughage and structure for chewing time, while the alfalfa increases palatability and supports protein intake. Ideal for horses with moderate maintenance needs, or those who would benefit from lower sugar content.
