Description
Lucerne is a very nutritious feed and source of fibre.
It contains about 18% high-quality protein which provides good levels of all the essential amino acids for horses, including lysine, which can be low in many feeds, including grains.
It is high in digestible fibre, including pectin, which provides sustained energy (it is converted to glucose, glycogen and fat in horses' livers) and is very good for digestive health because it promotes beneficial gut microflora. Lucerne is readily available, very palatable, and highly digestible.
