FSC TEFF
Our Premium 3-String Teff Bales bring one of the most exciting and versatile warm-season grasses to your feeding program. Teff grass hay has earned a devoted following among horse owners, veterinarians, and livestock managers for one simple reason — it delivers outstanding palatability and digestibility with a uniquely low sugar and starch profile. Ideal for animals with metabolic sensitivities, insulin resistance, or Cushing's disease, Teff offers a safe, satisfying forage option without sacrificing quality or taste. Triple-strung for maximum bale integrity and harvested at peak nutritional value, our Premium Teff Bales are a specialty forage worth every bit of the investment — because your animals' health demands nothing less.

- Exceptionally Low Sugar & Starch Content Teff naturally tests very low in nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC), making it one of the safest forage choices for horses and livestock managing insulin resistance, laminitis, Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS), or Cushing's disease.
- Triple-String Construction Three heavy-gauge poly or wire strings keep each bale firmly compressed and structurally sound through loading, transit, and repeated handling — delivering consistent, full-weight bales from the first flake to the last.
- High Palatability Despite its low-sugar profile, Teff is remarkably well-accepted by even the pickiest eaters. Its fine, soft texture and mild aroma make it an easy transition hay for animals new to specialty forage.
- Fine-Stemmed, Highly Digestible Structure Teff's naturally fine stems and tender leaf structure promote excellent digestibility and chew time, supporting healthy gut motility and reducing the risk of impaction or digestive upset.
- Moderate Protein Content Typically ranging from 10–14% crude protein depending on cutting and growing conditions, Teff provides balanced nutrition suitable for maintenance, light work, and sensitive metabolic cases without excessive protein loading.
- Optimal Harvest Timing Cut at the vegetative to early boot stage to capture peak nutrient density and maximum leaf-to-stem ratio — ensuring every bale reflects the quality your animals deserve.
- Low Moisture, Properly Cured Baled at carefully monitored moisture levels (12–15%) to guard against mold, mycotoxins, and heat damage, supporting safe long-term storage and consistent forage quality bale to bale.
- Uniform Bale Weight Each bale weighs approximately 100–130 lbs, providing predictable portioning for veterinarian-guided or nutritionist-designed feeding programs.
- Clean, Weed-Free Forage Grown in well-managed fields and inspected for purity — free from toxic weeds, debris, and foreign matter — giving you peace of mind with every feeding.
- The Specialty Forage of Choice Recommended by equine veterinarians and nutritionists for metabolically challenged horses, senior animals, easy keepers, and any livestock requiring a controlled-carbohydrate diet. Also suitable as a high-quality everyday grass hay for healthy animals.
