Alfalfa and green oats add structure to feeds
Luzerne+ combines the natural properties of proven forage plants: alfalfa and green oats. This blend adds valuable crude fibre and high-quality protein to the concentrate feed ration – tasty and naturally low in starch, sugar and fructans – for feeds with more structure.The power of alfalfa and green oats
The mix of alfalfa and green oats combines the benefits of both plants. Alfalfa has long been valued in equine nutrition as a source of protein. It’s rich in crude fibre and low in starch, sugar and fructans. For green oats, the oat plant is harvested before the grains are fully formed in the panicle. This produces an alternative to traditional oats that is lower in starch and higher in crude fibre.Luzerne+ complements grain-rich feeding plans, optimises their calcium-phosphorous ratio and compensates for low-crude-fibre and low-protein rations. Both ingredients are grown in Bavaria, extracted from the whole plant and gently air dried – for a natural feed without additives.
Versatile for everyday feeding
Luzerne+ fits into a wide range of feeding concepts: for competition, breeding or rehabilitative training – it’s easy to mix with concentrate feeds or can provide a structured complement to crude fibre feed. Its fibre-rich structure helps slow feed intake, making it suitable for horses that eat too quickly. With its low starch, sugar and fructan content, it is also suitable for sensitive horses that require a low-carbohydrate diet. Plus its flavour is highly appealing – many horses enjoy eating the blend of alfalfa and green oats. This makes Luzerne+ a natural part of everyday feeding.AREAS OF USE:
- to enhance hay, haylage and grass
- as a substitute for or complement to concentrated fee
- for sport and breeding horses, or for horses in rehabilitation
- as a low-starch and low-sugar complement
- to slow down feed intake in fast eaters
Feeding Recommendation
- to complement roughage: 100 to 500 g per 100 kg ideal body weight
- as grain substitute: 1.2 kg substitute approximately 1 kg of grain
- introduce new feed gradually
As a source of minerals, we recommend an AGROBS® mineral feed that is adapted to your horse and its needs.
