[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 944148, member: 6897"] ADF (Acid Detergent Fiber) is an indication of the digestibility of the hay and the energy content. Ideally it would be between 30-35...The lower the better...NDF is an indication of the "fill factor" of the hay. Should be around 50......seems to me this hay was well past prime when it was baled and not highly fertilized either. Will fill her up but a huge amount of it will pass thru undigested. You can still feed it but may need some supplementation thru the winter. [/QUOTE]
