Green Meadows forage Alfalfa Pellets are palatable quarter-inch pellets that are easy to feed and store. On average, most horses comfortably consume 2 percent of their body weight in dry forage per day. This equates to 20 pounds of dry forage per day for a 1000-pound horse.

Green Meadow Forage also recommends that pelleted and cubed forage not be the sole source of forage, since feeding some long-stem forage such as hay may help eliminate boredom and prevent stall vices.
