- The above recommended feeding rates are based on a 500kg horse and are guidelines only. Daily feedamounts will vary depending on pasture availability and body condition. Horses are very much individuals with different metabolic efficiencies, some require a little more, others a little less, for the same level of activity.
- It is advisable to split the above daily quantities into at least two feeds, preferable 3-4.
- Total feed intake should range between 2%-3% of the horses bodyweight per day.
- Ensure adequate fibre intakes by providing 1%-1.5% per day of the horse's body weight as chaff, hay, Dunstan Betabeet/Sugarbeet or pasture (on a DryMatter basis).
- As intensity of training increases a step up to Dunstan Sporthorse is recommended.
- General Notes:
Always ensure the horse has access to clean drinkingwater. High Copper levels in Dunstan Competition Mix make it unsuitable for feeding to sheep.
