EPOL LUCERNE CUBES 40KG

Equus Lucerne Cubes are a high protein roughage supplement which is consistent in composition and can be used to supplement the diets of all classes of horses.  The cubes are designed as a partial hay replacer, to stretch hay in times of scarcity or to improve the quality of the total roughage portion when general hay quality is low.  Note: Equus Lucerne cubes must never be used to replace long stemmed hay completely! It is advisable that a minimum of 1% of body mass (0.5% in extreme circumstances) of long stemmed hay be available at all times, even if it’s of lower nutritional value. Effective long fibres are essential for optimum digestive health and the importance of the long fibre outweighs the importance of the quality.  Up to 1% of the horse’s bodyweight of Lucerne Cubes can be used per day in addition to an alternative fibre source. Its not advisable for Lucerne to be the only source of roughage.
