Feeding Guide

Feed according to the animal’s species, body weight, age, workload and overall diet. Introduce oats gradually when changing feed and avoid sudden increases in grain intake.

For horses, feed alongside appropriate forage and ensure the overall ration is balanced for protein, vitamins and minerals. Do not rely on crushed oats as a complete feed.
