Hemp bedding is perfect for those sensitive to common allergens and dust found in most animal beddings. It's hypoallergenic and grown without the use of pesticides  making it a safe choice for you  your animals  and the environment. Hemp is very biodegradable and decomposes far faster than its wooden competitors  which also makes for happier composting or happier fields when you spread your manure pile. Hemp bedding is rapidly absorbent - absorbing up to 4x its weight in moisture and helping prevent the pooling or running-off of urine in stalls and other shelters. It captures liquids at the base level  leaving the top levels of your bedding clean and dry for your equines. Hemp's incredible absorbency at the base level also helps regulate ammonia in your barn. Aubiose is grown by a generational lineage of hemp farmers and is known for its consistent  excellent quality. Its lovely  light color and fluffy texture make for a lovely sight and a comfy stall every time. We truly believe this is the best hemp bedding for horses on the market.
