Meeting the Right Requirements - What Do I Need to Know About Balancing My Horse’s Diet?

This webinar with Dr. Tania Cubitt, Doctor of Philosophy in Equine Nutrition and Reproduction, discusses:
• What horses need to be healthy
• Optimizing a horse’s diet with forage
• Balanced horse feed program examples
• Availability of forage - where can you find consistent, quality forage?
Additionally, vet care costs can get pricey, but what if you can improve the overall diet and gut heath of your horse to help minimize the impact of those ailing conditions? What if forage is the answer you’ve been looking for?

I have a question about alfalfa and beet pulp. Is the weight of no more then ideally 5 lb of feed when dry? Once soaked the weight and size increases dramatically does that have any effect on how it sits in sits in the gut?

Thank you for your comment, we appreciate hearing from you. Standlee products are measured dry. The reason for this, is that although it looks as if the volume increases, it is just water. For example, if you were to feed the 5lbs dry, your horse would go over to the trough and drink a bunch of water, expanding the beet pulp any way. Soaking beforehand prevents a choking hazard, and is a great safety precaution!
