Timothy Orchard Grass

Timothy Orchard Grass is widely regarded as one of the finest, most balanced cool-season forage blends available for livestock and performance animals. At M&N Hay Sales of NJ, we are proud growers and brokers of the finest grass mix in the country. Our most popular mix of forage is always baled green and dry to provide the highest levels of nutrition, making it the optimum choice to feed Horses, Cattle, Alpacas, Sheep, and Goats. The natural softness of the stems and leaves makes it exceptionally easy to digest, which optimizes feed efficiency and minimizes waste in every stall.

Combining the high-fiber structure of Timothy grass with the rich palatability and soft leaf structure of Orchard grass creates an ideal daily ration. This blend maintains an optimal calcium-to-phosphorus ratio, preventing the metabolic spikes often associated with pure legume hays. M&N Hay Sales of NJ works continuously to harvest and source batches cured under precise moisture levels to maintain vivid color, fine texture, and peak digestible energy.

We supply a variety of bale configurations to match your barn handling equipment and storage capacity:

• 2 String Bales (45 lbs): Lightweight, uniform, and ideal for easy manual handling in everyday barn stalls.
• 3×3 Large Square Bales: High-density bales designed for larger equestrian facilities, commercial feeding, and easy stacking.
• Round Bales: Perfect for outdoor herd feeding, pasture paddocks, and high-volume livestock operations.

5 Reasons You Should Upgrade Your Forage to Timothy Orchard Grass

Upgrading your current feeding program to a high-quality grass mix yields noticeable improvements in animal health and barn management. Consider these key advantages when selecting your next supply from M&N Hay Sales of NJ:

• Optimal Digestive Balance: The soft leaf texture of Orchard grass combined with the clean fiber of Timothy promotes healthy gut motility and smooth digestion.
• Reduced Barn Waste: Because animals find the mixture soft and sweet, they eat more of the bale, leaving significantly less trampled stem material behind.
• Consistent Protein Levels: This cool-season grass blend delivers steady crude protein without overloading sensitive animals with excess calories or non-structural carbohydrates.
• Broad Species Compatibility: A single inventory of this versatile mix can safely feed horses, alpaca herds, sheep, goats, and cattle without special adjustments.
• Superior Respiratory Safety: Proper curing and dust-controlled baling protect delicate airway passages in stabled horses and show animals.

5 Things to Do Before Ordering Timothy Orchard Grass in Bulk

Proper preparation ensures that your shipment of premium hay remains clean, fresh, and highly nutritious throughout the season. Follow these five practical steps before taking delivery from M&N Hay Sales of NJ:

• Inspect Storage Area Structure: Check your hay loft, barn bay, or storage shed for roof leaks, loose siding, or pest access points.
• Elevate Off Bare Flooring: Lay down wooden pallets on dirt or concrete floors to keep ground moisture from penetrating bottom bales.
• Determine Seasonal Volume Needs: Calculate your herd size and daily consumption rates to order the right combination of small square, large square, or round bales.
• Prepare Delivery Access Routes: Clear driveways, barn overheads, and turnarounds so delivery trucks or trailers can maneuver safely.
• Plan a Gradual Diet Transition: Prepare to mix new forage into your existing feed over a 10 to 14 day period to support steady gut microflora.

5 Ways to Prevent Waste and Mold in Stored Timothy Orchard Grass

Protecting your investment requires active management of storage climate and daily feeding habits. Implement these five straightforward steps to keep your Timothy Orchard Grass in peak condition:

• Maintain Cross-Ventilation: Keep barn doors and loft windows open periodically to prevent stagnant, humid air from settling around stacks.
• Stack in Interlocking Layers: Alternate bale directions between layers to improve stack stability and encourage natural airflow.
• Use Slow-Feed Hay Nets: Feeding horses in slow-mesh nets prevents animals from pulling large flakes onto the ground where it gets soiled.
• Keep Tarped Loads Vented: If storing outside under heavy-duty tarps, leave bottom edges slightly elevated to prevent moisture condensation buildup.
• Monitor Barn Moisture Levels: Check humidity in your storage areas during rain spells to ensure bales remain completely dry.
