Forage for the whole yard, planned with you.
Five horses or fifty: you need hay that is the same from one load to the next, a supplier who answers, and deliveries that fit your storage. That is what we do for stables across Portugal and Spain.
- Big bales, pallets or a full truck
- One invoice per stable, with your NIF
- A personal quote within 1 working day
Pick the format that fits your barn
What suits you depends on how many horses you feed, how much you can store and whether you have a machine on site. Most yards combine two of these over a year.
Big bales
French meadow hay in bales of about 500 kg. €270,60 per bale incl. VAT, from 4 bales. Big bales travel with our own team (Prime Hay Service), who stack them where you store them.
- Lowest price per kilo in the shop
- No machine needed: our unloader comes along
Pallets of small bales
Double-compressed bales of about 24 kg, 36 to a pallet, from half a pallet (18 bales). Mix meadow hay, Longchamp®, alfalfa, straw and feed on the same pallet.
- Easy to handle by hand
- By our team or by carrier
Full truck
A complete load driven straight from France to your yard: about 26.000 kg of small bales or about 18.500 kg of big bales. Price on request, by personal quote.
- You unload with a telehandler or forklift
- Delivery date planned together
What a kilo of forage costs you
We sell per bale, but bales differ a lot in weight. This table puts them side by side, so you can compare like with like.
| Product | Bale weight | Price per bale | Per kg | Minimum |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| French meadow hay, small bale | ≈ 24 kg | €14,70 | ≈ €0,61 | 18 bales (½ pallet) |
| French meadow hay, big bale | ≈ 500 kg | €270,60 | ≈ €0,54 | 4 bales |
| Longchamp®, small bale | ≈ 24 kg | €18,45 | ≈ €0,77 | 18 bales |
| Luzerne / alfalfa, small bale | ≈ 24 kg | €18,45 | ≈ €0,77 | 18 bales |
| French wheat straw, small bale | ≈ 22 kg | €9,23 | ≈ €0,42 | 18 bales |
| French wheat straw, big bale | ≈ 500 kg | €159,90 | ≈ €0,32 | 4 bales |
| Full truck, French meadow hay | ± 18.500 to 26.000 kg | Personal quote | On request | 1 truck |
Shop prices on 28 October 2026, per bale, including 23% VAT and excluding delivery. Per-kilo figures are rounded and based on the average bale weight; natural bales vary a little. The cheapest kilo is not always the cheapest way to feed: storage, waste and handling count too. Current prices are always on the shop and hay prices pages.
How much does a yard go through?
Most horses eat roughly 1.5 to 2.5% of their body weight in forage a day. As an example: a 500 kg horse on about 10 kg of hay a day uses around 300 kg a month. Ten such horses need about 3 tonnes a month, or six big bales. Tell us your numbers and we work out the right format and rhythm with you.
One stable, one invoice
Running a yard means paperwork. We keep it simple: one account for the whole stable, one invoice per order with your company name and NIF, and every invoice ready to download for your accountant.
- Company name and NIF / VAT number on every invoice
- Invoices to download from your account
- All your horses and feeding plans in one place
- Card, Multibanco and more at checkout; bank transfer for orders we invoice directly
We plan, you feed
Many yards order on a rhythm, every few weeks or every few months. This is how that works with us:
- Ask us. Tell us how many horses you feed, what you feed and how much you can store.
- We plan. We suggest a format and a rhythm, and fit you into our delivery rounds for your region.
- We remind you. About a week before each delivery you get a reminder. Confirm or change it in one click. No automatic charge.
Hay is a harvest, not a factory product, so we never promise stock months ahead. What we do promise: regular customers hear first when new hay comes in, and we do our best to keep your rhythm going.
From our warehouses to your barn
Two warehouses of our own, in Almeirim (Ribatejo) and Loulé (Algarve). How your hay arrives depends on what you order:
Prime Hay Service
Our own driver and unloader stack the hay where you store it. €0,95 per km one way from the nearest warehouse, minimum €15, plus VAT, within 250 km of Almeirim or Loulé. The way big bales travel.
Pallet by carrier
€67,50 per pallet plus VAT (€83,03 incl.) anywhere in Portugal, €199 plus VAT (€244,77 incl.) to Spain. The driver sets the pallet down at the nearest safe point with truck access.
Full truck
Straight from France to your yard, on a date we plan together. Delivery is included in your quote. You unload the truck yourself, with a telehandler or forklift on site.
