Home › Blog › HaySoft – Quality Haylage
Launched in-time for autumn and winter, HaySoft is a nutritious haylage for horses and ponies that is produced from specially grown rye grass that is heat-sealed to retain goodness. HaySoft is uniquely cut and packed into 3 easy to manage sections, enabling it to be handled, and distributed easily. Many horse owners struggle to break-up packs of traditional haylage, but with HaySoft you can save time and hassle with the HaySoft pre-packed sections.
HaySoft is available in two varieties; HaySoft Original and HaySoft High Fibre. It is produced from rye grass that is cut in late May or early June when nutritional values are higher than in July or August. Instead of allowing the grass to dry out completely, the rye grass is baled when the moisture content reaches 30-35% and is tightly wrapped with several layers of polythene to exclude any air. The haylage then mildly ferments over a period of 8-10 weeks which preserves the nutrients and proteins and prevents mould or dust spores forming, producing a moist, nutritious and dust free forage with no need for soaking.
HaySoft is baled while still moist to create a dust-free forage feed, with more vitamins and minerals and a higher nutritional value than hay. The HaySoft manufacturing process helps to prevent the exposure of horse or owner to potentially dangerous mould spores.
HaySoft is brought to you from the producers of BedSoft bedding and is based at Frieze Hall Farm in Essex. HaySoft is produced using rye grass grown at Frieze Hall and neighbouring farms, keeping raw material, transport costs and the carbon footprint to a minimum!
