Pure Pellet

We grow Pure stands of forage, so you always know exactly what you’re feeding. Our Pure Pellet range is free from any binders or additives. The drying and pelleting process creates a consistent and high-quality forage. It takes around 20 minutes to dry the crop to the desired 10% moisture before it is ready for pelleting.

Pure Lucerne Nuts

  • 100% Pure Lucerne in a quick soaking nut form with no additives.

    • Highly palatable and ideal for both young and older horses.

    • The soaked mash aids hydration and is perfect for horses with dental problems.

    • High in fibre and low in sugar allows for a steady release of digestible energy.

“At Sky Park Farm, we use Pure Lucerne Nuts in our deer feeding bags, which our visitors buy to feed to the red, sika and fallow deer. It is fantastic to see the pleasure that this experience gives to both adults and children alike. The Pure Lucerne Nuts are consistent, clean and allergen-free; the deer love them. As well as providing a visitor experience they contribute a valuable part of the deer ration. South Downs Forage & Feeds has always been super helpful in supplying the product and they have never let us down. Strongly recommend.”
