This week, we feature a discussion between co-host Kim Brown and equine nutritionist Dr. Nicole Rambo on forage-based diets for horses. They explore what constitutes a forage-based diet, emphasizing that while forage should be the bulk of a horse's diet, it does not mean excluding other nutritional sources.
Dr. Rambo addresses common misconceptions, the importance of balancing forage with other nutrients, and how to adapt diet plans for various scenarios like senior horses, drought conditions, or horses needing additional calories. They also discuss the role of ration balancers and specialized feeds in supplementing a forage-based diet, ensuring horses receive all necessary nutrients for optimal health and performance.
