sale of alfalfa

The properties of the alfalfa depend on its maturity, therefore on the cut.

1. First cut alfalfa: Ratio between stem and leaf quite balanced. Slightly less rich and more fibrous.
    
2. La 2nd cut alfalfa:  More leaf and less stem. A little richer and less fibrous.
    
3. La 3rd / 4th cut alfalfa: Even more leaf and less stem.
    

Le sainfoin (or esparcette Onobrychis viciifolia) was a widely cultivated legume until the 1960s (400 ha). Its production has been considerably reduced with mechanization and the massive arrival of fertilizers (000ha in 20). Less productive than alfalfa (000% less according to Reyne and Garambois, 1986), the culture of sainfoin nevertheless contains a lot of protein (20% at the 1977st stage of vegetation against 14,2% for alfalfa grown under the same conditions , Theodoridou et al (1)).
sainfoin is mainly used to feed livestock (ruminants and horses). Several forms of consumption exist: grazing, dry fodder (hay) and corks. Sainfoin is also very well known for its tannins which improves the assimilation of proteins in the digestive tract of ruminants, thus limiting the problems of bloat and reducing the release of urinary nitrogen and methane into the environment (Aufrère et al, 2013) .

What hay and for what use?

Hay for suckler cows provides a balance between fiber (therefore digestible) and protein (therefore energy).
Advice Cépière Eco Fodder Energy : Order your 1st cut hay, rich in grasses which provide protein resources of major interest in the supply of local proteins for animal feed.

Hay for dairy cows must guarantee both a high protein supply and a fiber supply. There must therefore be a balance between grasses and legumes.
Advice Cépière Eco Fodder Energy : Order your 2nd cut hay.

Hay for dairy sheep or hay for dairy goats must guarantee a very good supply of legumes for milk production.
Advice Cépière Eco Fodder Energy : Order your leafy hay.

Horse hay should be very clean, dust-free, green and fragrant. Fibrous, balanced stem and leaf ratio because the horse's digestion is sensitive. Not too rich.
Advice Cépière Eco Fodder Energy : Order your hay not too rich: contact us for the best hay for horse feed. Crau hay is an excellent hay for horses.
