LEXA alfalfa cobs

The queen of forage plants - alfalfa cobs in the best quality directly from Bavaria

Lucerne is known as the queen of forage plants and is characterized by its valuable protein, particularly high proportion of essential amino acids, ß-carotene and highly available calcium. Lucerne also provides a high proportion of crude fiber and is therefore very gentle on the entire gastrointestinal tract. LEXA Lucerne cobs are suitable as a versatile and high-quality roughage supplement or manger feed substitute for leisure, sport and breeding horses. They bring high-quality protein components into the ration and naturally support the horse's overall vitality, muscle building and metabolism. Lucerne slowly releases energy, so that lucerne cobs are also ideal as a grain substitute for horses that develop too much of a temperament through grain feeding. Due to their digestibility, they ideally enhance the roughage quality of sport horses and leisure horses and support optimal muscle development and promote overall well-being. LEXA alfalfa cobs are grown directly in Bavaria and gently dried and processed on site. LEXA alfalfa cobs are a high-quality natural product, completely free of additives, grain and molasses

Note on use: Lucerne brings a lot of calcium and iron into the ration, so when feeding quantities of more than one kg per day, make sure it is adequately balanced with trace elements (zinc, copper, manganese, selenium) and minerals (phosphorus). Mineral feeds with a high calcium content and high amounts of iron are not suitable for this, as otherwise imbalances and antagonism can occur.
