Compact Lucerne (20kg) for Poultry

The Hartog Compact Lucerne is a valuable supplement to the feeding of poultry. The Compact Lucerne (20kg) for Poultry bales are made of a high quality dehydrated luzerne / alfalfa.

The Hartog Compact Luzerne for poultry is a compact bale of 20 kg. The bale is held together by 4 plastic straps, therefore the bales stay compact for longer and the poultry spills less lucerne or alfalfa. The bales are packed in a plastic film, but it's also possible with a private label.

Compact Luzerne bales keep the hens busy and help to prevent boredom
Compact Luzerne bales stimulate the natural pecking, give a larger feeling of satisfaction and therefore less aggresiveness
Compact Luzerne contributes to a high nutritional value

Salmonella

Our Lucerne is heated by a gas fired process (the only one in the Netherlands). During this heating process there aren't arising dioxins, PCBs or heavy metals in the alfalfa. By heating it to high temperatures, the alfalfa is free from moulds, moisture and bacteria such as Salmonella.

Composition

To produce Hartog Compact Luzerne we use 100% lucerne produced by growers that we monitor. The product is therefore free of weeds etc.

Feeding advice

Put at least two bales of Compact Luzerne in each compartment
Spread the bales as much as possible so all hens can eat the lucerne
Place the Compact Luzerne in the evening to prevent stress in a restless couple
Allow the strips to remain on the product for slow feeding of the lucerne

Start by feeding Compact Lucerne in the first weeks of life
