Tract to Success
Pg HS 405-2 Feeding Management Guidelines (paragraph re-written)
Specific nutrient requirements for horses are determined based on their body weight and physiological status. In general, forage based diets and small frequent meals should be the foundation of all feeding programs to ensure digestive and overall health. Forage (pasture and/or hay) should account for a minimum of 1% of their body weight per day. For example, a 1,000 pound horse would require at least 10 pounds of forage per day.
Pg 405-5 and 405-12 A Weightier Problem activity calculate all forage at 1% of body weight
