Economics of Feeding Horses in Training
/
While economic efficiency within any business is important to maintain profitability, there has been a particular focus on cost saving recently within the racing industry as a result of the underlying economic climate.
Feeding is an area where economies can be made, but for the best effect any cost savings should not compromise the quality of the ration to the detriment of health or performance. Equally however, we should not shy away from a critical evaluation of our feeding management on a regular basis, especially if there is an element of sticking to the same way of feeding just because 'it's always been done like that'.

Hemp for horses
/
Hemp has been synonymous with horse bedding for many years, as its fibrous properties give these products good cushioning and absorptive properties. Latterly, hemp has become popular as a food ingredient for people, being associated with well-known brands such as ‘The Food Doctor’ and ‘Ryvita’. It has also been investigated as a feed ingredient for farm animals including laying hens and dairy cows.
Hemp is primarily an oilseed crop like soya, linseed and rapeseed and it is the grain or seed that contains the majority of nutritional value. In comparison to other oilseed crops, hemp produces a very high yield and therefore it is not surprising that in recent years it has become a good economic crop for farmers in some parts of the world.
