Lucerne Hay – Small Bale

Lucerne Hay – Small Bale is a high-quality forage option commonly used for
horses, cattle, sheep, goats, alpacas, rabbits and other livestock. Lucerne hay is valued for
its high protein, energy and calcium content, making it a useful feed for growing animals,
breeding stock, lactating animals and livestock needing extra condition.

Small lucerne bales are easy to handle, store and feed out, making them a practical choice
for hobby farms, horse owners, smallholders and backyard livestock keepers. Lucerne can be
fed on its own where suitable, or mixed with grass hay, pasture hay, chaff or hard feed as
part of a balanced feeding program.

Lucerne hay is often used to support animals with higher nutritional requirements, including
working horses, young stock, ewes and does with lambs or kids, and animals needing improved
body condition. It is also commonly used as a palatable roughage source when pasture quality
is limited.
