Compact Grass

In order to feed horses in the stable in as natural a manner as possible, Hartog has developed a unique product called Compact Grass.

To produce Hartog Compact Grass, we use a meticulously selected mix of fibre-rich grasses especially for horses. Compact Grass is tightly compressed into a small bale for convenient storage and handling. It does not have to be broken up before being fed to horses. By serving a bale of Compact Grass in the Hartog feed box, a horse’s eating rate in the stall is slowed to the point that it more nearly matches natural grazing behaviour in the field.

• 100% dried grass with no additives
• Tasty and healthy
• Prevents boredom in the stable
• Consistent quality
• Free of dust and mould
• Protected with a plastic covering

Hartog Feed box

A special Feed Box is available for dispensing Hartog Compact Grass. The Hartog Feed box consists of an anti-spill edge that prevents loss of food. Approximately half a bale of Hartog Compact Grass can fit into such a container.

Composition Compact Grass

For producing Hartog Compact Grass we use a special grass mix produced by growers that we monitor. The product is therefore free of weeds and ragwort.
