Creating a
FORAGE FIRST®
Program for your horse is easy.
1.
Nutrient needs are determined by life stage of horse and class of
horse/level of activity.
2.
As much of the horse's nutrient needs as possible should be provided
by forages (pasture, hay and/or forage products like hay cubes or
forage pellets).
3.
Provide vitamin-mineral products because forages do not contain all
the vitamins
and minerals
needed by a horse. These can be provided
by one of the above Premium
products
or with
GROSTRONG®
Vitamin
and Mineral products.
4.
Good-quality forages and a vitamin-mineral supplement may provide
all the nutrients and calories a non-working, mature horse needs.
For all other classes and activities, additional nutrient needs can
be met with one of the Premium blends and/or Premium
high fat supplements (HEALTHY GLO®,
MOORGLO®,
or
ShowBoost®).
Fortified Feeds
**Patriot Feed Easy and Patriot Senior are complete forage/feed
products and are fed at higher amounts (16-20 lb daily for a
1,100 lb mature horse) when they replace all or most of the hay
or pasture forage. Refer to label directions for complete
feeding instructions.
