Pasture conditions can change rapidly due to weather, seasonality, and grazing pressure. During drought, overgrazing, or early spring growth, pasture may not provide the right balance of nutrients. Similarly, locally sourced hay can vary significantly in quality depending on harvest timing, storage conditions, and regional differences. Even when feeding hay regularly, these inconsistencies can create gaps in nutrition, energy levels, and overall performance.
Supplementing with high-quality forage helps bridge these gaps by providing a more reliable and controlled feeding option that supports digestive health and overall stability in the diet.
