We believe the Lincs Forage product is amongst the best in the world and have published our test data results for your peace of mind.
Our products have been analysed by Holmes Labs and Baileys Horse Feeds - a top UK feed expert. Baileys state "the grass and haylage were of excellent quality" and "will form an excellent feeding programme for horses in work and breeding stock, encouraging efficient gut function making a significant contribution to the horses nutrient requirements".
As you will also quickly see by our results below, our 2 products (The Royal and The Majestic) are true market leaders with the "Royal" being of the highest quality. We would urge you to compare our results against the top Canadian importers.

The Royal is totally suited to the professional markets, including racing, dressage and breeding. This ensures the horses receive the most important nutrients possible to give them the best achievable performances.
There really is no need to pay high importation prices anymore as you can get the Lincs Forage Royal - a top quality haylage at an outstanding price. And because our product is grown here in the UK, you will avoid all unnecessary importation and custom charges giving you full value for money.
We also produce the Lincs Forage Majestic. This is a range of haylage that is still a superior haylage to most on the market but comes to you at an exceptional purchase price. The Majestic still gives a complete feed with total care towards the horses needs with protein levels of between 10 & 12%.
Also, due to our packaging process, we can supply our product in two bale sizes. The first is a rectangular bale, approximately 80cm wide x 47cm height x 100cm long, which gives an average weight of around 120kg depending on the moisture levels of the bales.
Our second and most popular option with our customers is the double size choice. This is two bales wrapped, and packaged together measuring approximately 80cm wide x 94cm in height x 100cm long. These weigh around 240kg, but because of the advantages of less handling and packaging we can offer these to you at a more cost effective price.

Whichever option you prefer, our bales give you the added benefit of smaller wedge sizes allowing it to be used with hay nets and racks with ease.
