How is orchard hay different to local hay?

Orchard hay is usually just a grass hay, so it may be your local hay. There are similar types of grass hay, (timothy, rye) and sometimes you can find them mixed with other types of hay. This kind of hay is good but for most horses they may need alfalfa or oat hay in addition to orchard. 'Easy keepers' do well with orchard hay because they maintain their body weight more easily.

How many different kinds of grass are there?

There are many different kinds of forage crops that have the appropriate nutritional benefits to make hay for animals. Some include clover, alfalfa, birdsfoot trefoil, sanfoin, laspadenza, cicer milkvetch, and grasses include timothy, orchard grass, bromegrass, wheatgrass, ryegrass, fescue, and bluegrass. The different hay types include grass hay, legume hay, and grass-legume mix hay. The highest nutritional-type hay is legume, but the risks of legume-only hay is bloat, so grass-legume mix hay is the most popular type of hay that many livestock producers use. Grass hay is much better for horses because of the lower energy content as opposed to the legume hay.
