Mollichaff Alfalfa Oil


Mollichaff Alfalfa Oil is made from high fibre, UK grown alfalfa mixed with a generous dressing of soya oil.

Weight: 18 Kg  

Alfalfa (Lucerne) is a legume and is a rich source of highly digestible fibre.  When fed in its pure form, alfalfa will provide equivalent energy levels to that of a cool mix, yielding approx 10MJ/kg.  The energy is derived from fibre and will therefore not cause the fizziness associated with grains.

  • Contains an energy level equivalent to a medium energy mix making it great for horses or ponies that require increased condition or energy.
  • High in fibre and ‘slow-release’ energy.
  • Low in sugar and starch.
  • A natural feed to replace cereals in the diet reducing fizziness.
  • Alfalfa is naturally low in sugars and is therefore safe to feed to laminitics.
  • Highly palatable to fussy eaters.
  • Good source of natural vitamins and minerals.
  • Contains nutrient rich leaf as well as the stalk of the plant.
  • Mollichaff Alfalfa oil contains no molasses.
