Forage

Not all hays and pastures are created equal. Roughage in the form of hay or pasture is vital to the horse's unique digestive system, and provides an important source of nutrients, including minerals that are needed by the horse's body for optimum health, performance, and growth.

The minerals in the hay or pasture the horse eats depend on the mineral levels in the soil and environmental conditions that the plants grew in, and soils vary widely in mineral content across just the United States and Canada. Soils in some regions are very high in certain minerals and others are deficient. Some minerals can be toxic in high amounts.

At Complete Feed & Forage, we help you give your horses all of the nutrients they need by offering a fresh, premium selection of hay. We can help you decide which type is best for your horses based on what kind of pasture you have at your farm.
