There are many beneficial nutritional attributes in <em><strong>alfalfa hay<\/strong><\/em> that, over other forage choices for dairy cows, give producers the best economic value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dairy farmers are not the only producers that benefit from alfalfa hay.&nbsp; It is used as forage nationally and internationally for other livestock like horses, sheep and goats.&nbsp; Beef cattle producers are attracted by the high protein and energy value of alfalfa hay, and there are many advantages to feed <em><strong>beef cows<\/strong><\/em> this high quality forage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nutritional Value of Alfalfa Hay<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>This high protein and high energy forage also holds high mineral values.&nbsp; <strong>Beef cows<\/strong> that consume <strong>alfalfa hay<\/strong> will benefit from quick nutrient absorption due to the lower fibre content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alfalfa Hay: Protein &amp; Energy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Alfalfa hay<\/span> in the late bud, early bloom stage can contain 16-20% crude protein.&nbsp; Even alfalfa hay cut later can still contain 12-15% crude protein, while fiber content rages from 20-28%.&nbsp; The digestion rate of alfalfa hay is about 36 hours.&nbsp; Lower quality forages contain much less protein and more fiber, which contribute to digestion taking up to 70 hours.&nbsp; The actual <em>quality<\/em> of protein in <strong>alfalfa hay<\/strong> is excellent with more than 70% of the total protein being digestible.&nbsp;(<em>University of Nevada, Cooperative Extension Fact Sheet 93-23)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although <strong>alfalfa hay<\/strong> is known for its high protein content, its high energy content should not be overlooked.&nbsp; <strong>Beef cows<\/strong> need high energy forage to regain body weight after calving and producing milk for calves so they are ready to re-breed sooner.&nbsp; Since alfalfa hay is digested much quicker than other forages, beef cows are able to gain poundage faster, produce more milk for their calves, and maintain a better condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alfalfa Hay:&nbsp; Vitamins &amp; Minerals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alfalfa hay<\/strong> has a high nutritional quality.&nbsp; Alfalfa contains vitamins A, D, E, K, U, C, B1, B2, B6, B12, Niacin, Panthothanic acid, Inocitole, Biotin, and Folic acid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Freshly harvested <em><strong>alfalfa hay<\/strong><\/em> is very rich in vitamin A, which can actually help reduce stress in animals caused by moving or shipping cattle.&nbsp; Vitamin E can help eliminate \u2018white muscle disease\u2019, which can cause losses in calves due to a deficiency of vitamin E and selenium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also contains the following minerals:&nbsp; Phosphorus, Calcium, Potassium, Sodium, Chlorine, Sulfur, Magnesium, Copper, Manganese, Iron, Cobalt, Boron, and Molybdenum and trace elements such as Nickel, Lead, Strontium and Palladium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If one pound of alfalfa hay is fed per 100 pounds of body-weight, beef cows will meet their daily requirements for calcium, magnesium, potassium, sulfur, iron, cobalt manganese and zinc.&nbsp; The high levels of calcium in <strong>alfalfa hay<\/strong> are beneficial to lactating <em><strong>beef cows<\/strong><\/em> and developing heifers and bulls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Barr-Ag Alfalfa<\/h1>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/barr-ag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/alfalfa-hay.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-522\" style=\"width:341px;height:auto\" title=\"Alfalfa-Hay\" srcset=\"https:\/\/barr-ag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/alfalfa-hay.jpg 800w, https:\/\/barr-ag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/alfalfa-hay-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/barr-ag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/alfalfa-hay-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/barr-ag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/alfalfa-hay-624x468.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Barr-Ag <strong>alfalfa hay<\/strong> is GMO-free and graded by an independent laboratory analysis.&nbsp;
