ALFA-A OIL is the conditioning fibre feed for horses and ponies. The addition of oil makes this product excellent for adding condition on horses and ponies needing a bit more weight, but without the fizziness often associated with cereal based products. Providing approximately 12.5MJ/kg of slow-release energy, Alfa-A Oil can be fed to horses undertaking harder work - on a kg for kg basis it provides as much energy as a medium energy coarse mix/nut. ALFA-A OIL is made from pure alfalfa which has been chopped and dried at a very high temperature to lock in the natural goodness, with a dressing of oil added to give additional conditioning. Alfalfa is an excellent natural source of antioxidants. Alfa-A Oil has been boosted with vitamin E (a natural antioxidant) to meet the increased requirements of horses fed an oil supplemented diet.
HOW TO GET THE MOST OUT OF FEEDING WITH DENGIE ALFA-A OIL:

RESPIRATORY CARE
The alfalfa in Alfa-A Oil is dried at a very high temperature which effectively sterilises the product, killing moulds. Efficient extraction processes ensure Alfa-A Oil has a low dust content making it ideal for horses and ponies prone to respiratory allergies.
