About Alfalfa pellets price
Alfalfa pellets is a fiber source, fed for effective fiber and gut fill more than for nutrients. It is priced and tracked here, but it is not scored on the substitution leaderboard: no dry-matter-basis nutrient coefficient for it was verified against a primary extension or NRC table at build, and this site never guesses a coefficient. Prices are quoted per ton, and the cheapest board price is not the cheapest fed price once freight and moisture are counted (see the FOB-vs-delivered guide).
