I think they can digest them but don't need that much protein. They do well on low sugar, low protein grass hay. I think that the alfalfa was formulated for dairy cows nutritional needs not horses. That being said, I know there are areas where alfalfa hay and or pellets are most widely available and that some people feed them. I will be happy to hear what others think. Ann
