Descrizione Recensioni

This book clearly explains the science of nutrition and combines this with the art of feeding to encourage an understanding of how to feed horses to keep them healthy, and allow them to reach their full performance potential. This new edition - the first since 1992 - has been fully updated and extended to include new feeds and feeding practices and explains new advances in scientific knowledge. It provides clear guidelines for feeding competition horses, older horses and problem animals, and explains the role of feeds and feeding in maintaining the immune system and soundness. Table of contents:The digestive system; The necessary nutrients; Metabolic pathways and the utilisation of nutrients; The feeds; Nutrient requirements; Ration formulation (worked examples for a wide variety of horses); Grassland management; Nutritional disorders; A practical feeding; The added extras
