| Content | Alfalfa hay bales, made from the nutrient-rich legume plant, provides livestock with a superior forage choice that delivers exceptional nutrition and supports their overall well-being. The bales are carefully harvested, dried, and compacted to preserve the natural goodness of the alfalfa, resulting in a highly palatable and digestible feed source.
Benefits of feeding alfalfa hay bales to livestock include:
- Nutritional Excellence: Alfalfa hay is renowned for its exceptional nutritional profile, boasting high levels of proteins, vitamins (A, D, E, and K), minerals (calcium, potassium, phosphorus), and fiber. These nutrients play a vital role in promoting optimal growth, muscle development, and overall health in livestock.
- Digestive Health: The fiber content in alfalfa hay promotes healthy digestion in livestock. It aids in maintaining a well-functioning digestive system, minimizing the risk of digestive disorders such as colic or gastrointestinal blockages. The fibrous nature of alfalfa hay also encourages proper chewing, which supports dental health in animals.
- Weight Management: Alfalfa hay bales can be utilized to manage weight in livestock. The high-quality proteins and fibers help maintain healthy body weight, whether the animals require weight gain or weight maintenance. This versatility allows livestock owners to adapt their feeding strategies to individual animals' needs.
- Enhanced Milk Production: For dairy cattle, alfalfa hay bales offer an excellent source of nutrition to support milk production. The balanced blend of proteins, minerals, and vitamins stimulates lactation, resulting in higher milk yields and improved milk quality.
- Improved Fertility and Reproductive Performance: The nutrient-rich composition of alfalfa hay positively influences reproductive health in livestock. It provides essential nutrients that contribute to optimal fertility, supporting conception rates and reproductive efficiency in breeding animals.
- Source of Forage Variety: Feeding alfalfa hay bales introduces dietary variety to livestock, enriching their eating experience and minimizing feed boredom. The distinct taste and texture of alfalfa hay encourage animals to consume their meals eagerly, promoting consistent intake of essential nutrients.

| This is the original Sweet PDZ product that was introduced in 1983. The key advantage of this small particle size is the fact that a person can more thoroughly and comprehensively cover the wet spot or problem area. This results in a faster acting performance of absorbing and adsorbing the ammonia and odor. Many Sweet PDZ users translate this faster performance to better performance, and will swear that the Sweet PDZ Classic/Powder outperforms Granular.
How it Works
Sweet PDZ is extremely effective at neutralizing and removing ammonia and odors, because of its two special properties:
- Absorption – Which is the sticking of the ammonia gas molecule to the surface of the Sweet PDZ granule. When the Sweet PDZ granules desorb, or dry out, the ammonia odor molecule is driven off the surface of the mineral as nitrogen. This is why spent (used) bedding material that includes Sweet PDZ, works so well as a slow release fertilizer or as an enhancement to composting.
- Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) – This is the liquid exchange aspect of Sweet PDZ’s odor neutralizing process. A sodium or potassium cation from the zeolite granule hydrolyzes (goes to liquid/urine) and the ammonium is exchanged and then becomes part of the Sweet PDZ granule. This liquid exchange works because the Sweet PDZ granules are always holding water.
| Steam Rolled Barley Grains 50# is a highly versatile and nutrient-rich feed option suitable for a range of animal species, including horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and poultry. This premium feed is made from carefully selected barley grains that undergo a steam-rolling process, which enhances their digestibility and unlocks their nutritional value.
Barley grains are an excellent source of energy, providing a balance of carbohydrates and fiber that supports the dietary requirements of different animals. The steam-rolling process breaks down the tough outer shell of the grains, making them easier to digest and allowing for better nutrient absorption.
For horses, steam rolled barley grains serve as a valuable energy source, supporting optimal performance, stamina, and overall health. It can be incorporated into the diet as a supplement or as part of a balanced feed ration.
Cattle, sheep, and goats can benefit from steam rolled barley grains as well. The grains provide a concentrated energy source, helping to meet the increased demands of growth, lactation, or weight gain. The digestibility of the steam-rolled grains allows for efficient utilization of nutrients, contributing to healthy body condition and productivity.
Poultry, including chickens and turkeys, can also benefit from the inclusion of steam rolled barley grains in their diets. The grains offer a valuable source of energy and essential nutrients, supporting healthy growth, feather development, and overall vitality.
By incorporating Steam Rolled Barley Grains 50# into the feeding regimen of various animal species, you can provide them with a highly digestible, energy-rich, and nutritionally balanced feed option. It is important to note that proper feeding practices and consultation with a veterinarian or nutritionist are recommended to ensure the appropriate inclusion of steam rolled barley grains in each animal's diet. |
