Nutrient-Rich Premium Forage
Leighton Lucerne Chaff is a top-quality, high-protein forage that’s perfect for supporting the health and performance of horses, cattle, sheep, goats, alpacas, and pigs.
Lucerne chaff is naturally rich in protein, calcium, and a wide range of essential vitamins and minerals.
It typically contains lower starch and sugar levels than many cereal or grass chaffs, making it an excellent choice for animals with metabolic concerns or those requiring cool, controlled energy.
Lucerne is also known for its highly digestible energy concentration, making it ideal for animals in work, breeding, growth, or recovery stages.
Chaff is a form of roughage and is produced by chopping up hay into smaller pieces.
The principal advantage of chaff is that it can be mixed with the concentrate portion of the animals feed (grain or pellet) so it consumes forage with the concentrate.
This can increase chewing time and slow the intake of concentrate.
The benefit of increasing chewing time is that concentrate then enters the digestive tract more slowly and in smaller amounts, this allows the simple carbohydrates to be fully absorbed in the small intestine.
Chaff is also easier to digest than hay and so it is great for young and older animals with dental issues or lack of appetite.
