Where on the NATRC site are you talking
about? I don't see anything about not feeding alfalfa.
I think feeding grass hay is better, or a
grass/alfalfa hay (that's mostly grass) but that's just my
opinion. In the winter, grass hay is much better at keeping horses
warm.

What is the general rule for feeding alfalfa to endurance horses. I
am still just doing LD's but I do feed my mare alfalfa, not a lot, about 1/4
flake once a day. I was just on NATRC site and they were talking about not
feeding alfalfa to distance horses. I know everyone has their own way to
feed, but what is the general consensus.>>
