Premium quality lucerne hay bale from Gingin When a mare becomes pregnant, her diet will usually change until she gives birth. Again, the high protein content of lucerne hay makes it an excellent feed source for a mare as her baby grows. Further, the lysine and calcium in the hay–both of which lucerne is rich in–can keep a mare healthy during her pregnancy so she can produce vigorous offspring. When the mare is lactating, she must have a diet rich in protein, amino acids like lysine, and calcium as well. In Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United Kingdom, this type of hay is known as Lucerne. Across North America, it’s referred to as alfalfa. Show more
