When I read the last question, I too was worried that they answered with True regarding feeding alfalfa to horses. Horses do not need the high levels of protein that come with alfalfa, cattle do. Cattle need the protein to feed the microbes in their rumen, which is how they digest their roughage. Horses have a completely different digestive system and need MUCH less protein. While it is true that depending on the protein levels of the concentrated feed, some horses could have a little alfalfa added into their diet, grassy hay is a much better choice and horses typically get enough protein that way.

I am happy to see that there are so many knowledgeable horse people that are willing to share on this topic as well. Hopefully not everyone will take this quiz as the final truth and investigate before they decide what to feed their horses.

Any info from Nutrena and TSC should be taken with a grain of salt. Alfalfa is OK if you know how to feed it, but grass hay is safer for most horses and horse owners. Alfalfa has an inverted Ca:P ratio which can cause problems in growing horses if the rest of the ration isn’t properly balanced. My advice is seek out feed companies who value quality and use locked or fixed formulas.
