What Are You Feeding?

Wednesday, November 11, 2009

 

The primary component of a horse’s diet should be forage. Ideally when feeding horses knowing the components of the forage will al-low an owner to feed the best grain mix to meet any deficits in the forage. The principle of hay sampling is to obtain a randomly-chosen sample which represents the average composition of the hay you are feeding.
