Horse Pasture vs Cow Pasture:
A horse pasture is a food source for the horse. But at the same time, our horses are also flight and grazing animals. So your soil and chosen grass should not only be suitable as a food source but also able to withstand the impact of a horse's hoof. A cow must produce milk or meat from its pasture grass. A horse does not have to, but is ridden, which is mainly recreational and therefore does not require as many nutrients as a cow to produce milk or meat. A cow pasture is therefore often too nutritious for horses, which is why it is important to sow a pasture with grass varieties that are suitable for horses. Another important difference between cows and horses is that a cow has four stomachs and a horse only one. The digestive system of a horse is designed to digest fibers. Fibers are mainly found in the stems of grass and less in the leaves of the grass. It is therefore important that as the grass grows, it gets a stem. Agrobs has taken these points into account in the development of a grass seed mixture specifically for horses.
Special features:
Agrobs Pre Alpin horse grass seed is a carefully selected mix of long and short grass varieties by Agrobs, accompanied by healthy herbs. Originating from the Bavarian Alpine foreland. Together, the grass varieties provide a generous feed yield. The varieties together form a dense sward quickly, allowing the grass to recover quickly after grazing and with a dense base, the grass has a long lifespan.
Pasture Management:
For optimal horse pasture, it is advisable to:
- alternate grazing and mowing
- not overgraze
- not graze when the ground is wet
- regularly rotate grazing (long rest period, short grazing period)
- not allow the grass to be grazed shorter than 5-6 cm
- drag and roll the pasture in the spring
- mow after grazing
- immediately reseed bare patches and walking areas

There is no free shipping for horse feed.
Horse feed is never shipped for free, even when the order is larger than 99,- euro. This is due to the weight, which means that the bales and bags have to be packaged in different packages and most products have to be shipped individually. If you order 10 bales/bags at 15kg each, you can expect them to be delivered in 5 to 10 packages.
Agrobs is a European product.
Agrobs horse feed is produced in Europe, Germany. It does not have to travel around the world to reach our store and therefore has a smaller environmental impact compared to horse feed from other regions. The production meets high European environmental and social standards.
