Baillie Haylage High Fibre is a medium to low energy haylage, high in dry matter and fibre, but low in sugar and energy (calories) compared to Baillie's Ryegrass and Ryegrass & Timothy varieties of haylage.
With more stem than Baillie's other lower energy forages (Traditional Parkland Meadow and
Meadow Grass) the Baillie Haylage High Fibre is an excellent, all-round forage. Cut later in the season from second and third year leys, this late heading perennial ryegrass is a versatile forage suitable for most, including:
- Horses and ponies at rest or in light to medium work
- Competition horses
- Good doers
- Broodmares
- Native breeds
- Some laminitics
It is essential that horses and ponies digest the appropriate amount of fibre according to their size, workload and living conditions to maintain good gut health. Feeding Baillie Haylage High Fibre is an excellent way to maintain a horse's natural grazing behaviour by trickling fibre into a horse’s diet and can help to reduce the reliance on hard feed.
