Agrobs Pre Alpin® Wiesencobs are the original meadow cob — hygienically compressed hay cobs made from over 60 natural Alpine grasses and herbs, including fescue, yarrow, Swedish clover, smooth oats, meadow foxtail and many more, grown in an intact natural Alpine environment. Warm-air dried to preserve their natural vitamins and nutrients, these dust-free and mould-free cobs stimulate healthy chewing and saliva production to optimally support the digestive process. High in energy without stressing the horse’s organism, and rich in natural beta-carotene, vitamin E and calcium, they are low in protein and suitable for all horses — from performance horses to good-doers. Ideal for horses with respiratory problems, dust allergies, coughs or digestive sensitivities. Available in a 20kg bag with free P&P.

FAQ

What makes Wiesencobs different from other hay cobs or haylage?
Agrobs Pre Alpin® Wiesencobs are the original meadow cob, made from over 60 natural Alpine grasses and herbs grown in an intact natural environment and warm-air dried to preserve their full nutritional profile. Unlike haylage, they are dust-free and mould-free. Unlike many hay cobs made from a single grass species, Wiesencobs provide the nutritional diversity of a natural meadow in a convenient compressed form.
Are they suitable for horses with respiratory problems?
Yes — Wiesencobs are completely dust-free and mould-free, making them an excellent choice for horses with respiratory conditions such as RAO, COPD, dust allergies, coughs or heaves. The compressed cob format means no loose dust particles that could trigger respiratory flare-ups.
Do they need to be soaked?
Wiesencobs can be fed dry or soaked in water. Soaking is recommended for horses with dental problems, elderly horses, or those that need a softer consistency. Dry feeding is suitable for horses with good dentition and promotes natural chewing behaviour and saliva production.
Are they suitable for good-doers or horses prone to weight gain?
Yes — Wiesencobs are low in protein and provide energy primarily from fibre fermentation rather than starch. This makes them suitable for good-doers, native breeds and horses prone to weight gain, as they provide bulk and satiety without excessive calories. Always monitor body condition and adjust quantities accordingly.
Can they be used as a hay replacer?
Yes — Wiesencobs can be used as a partial or complete hay replacer for horses that struggle with conventional hay due to respiratory sensitivity or dental problems. Feed by weight to match your horse’s forage requirements, and introduce gradually over 7–10 days when transitioning from hay.
