FORAGE FIRST®
HAY CUBES
 FORAGE FIRST
Alfalfa and Timothy/Alfalfa Hay Cubes offer horse
owners consistent, high-quality forage sources that can be used to
supply all or a portion of the forage needs for all classes of
horses. These products are cubed, which produces a higher
leaf-to-stem ratio, more concentrated nutrients, and less waste
than most long-stemmed hays.
FORAGE FIRST Hay Cubes are
excellent choices for horses with dental or respiratory problems
or for travel.
FORAGE FIRST Hay Cube Advantages
-
Reduce feed waste - Very little
waste occurs with cubes as compared to the 20% or more wastage
with long-stemmed hays.
-
Consistent and maximum nutrient
quality - Cubes are subjected to rigid quality control standards
and must meet product nutrient guarantees.
-
Avoid blister beetles
- Made from
forages grown in northern areas of the US and Canadian meadows
far north of the known habitats of blister beetles.
-
Less storage space - Cubed forages
require less storage space compared to baled hay.
-
Low moisture content
- More value
and longer storage time.

Feeding Instructions
FORAGE FIRST Alfalfa and Timothy/Alfalfa Cubes may bed fed as the
only source of forage or mixed with other forages and feeds. Feed
at the rate of 1-3% of body weight per day depending on age,
weight, workload, and reproductive status of the horse, and amount
of concentrate fed. Due to less waste, cubes can be fed at the
rate of 80-90% of the amount of long-stemmed hay replaced. Storage
Instructions: Store cubes in a cool, dry place. Avoid contact with
moist surfaces and sunlight.
