Smart Chaff

Smart Chaff is the smart fibre choice to supply a cool energy for conditioning without the mess and dust of typical chaffs.

Beneficial for gastrointestinal health, Smart Chaff helps to reduce risk of gut upset (such as colic), by preventing starch overload in the hindgut.


Developed for horses of all disciplines, Smart Chaff is made of 100% Australian ingredients. As a low sugar and starch feed, it is safe for horses with metabolic concerns such as laminitis, equine metabolic syndrome (EMS), or pituitary pars intermedia disease (PPID, also known as Cushing’s disease).


Smart Chaff contains a balanced calcium and phosphorus levels to help optimise bone health.


Smart Chaff can replace up to 50% of the hay or pasture ration when supply or quality is low. It soaks down well, making it an ideal roughage source for senior horses with poor dental health or arthritis.


In a unique chunk form, it is also suitable to be fed as a treat, especially for horses who require low sugar/starch (NSC) treats.
