Feeding Guidelines

Competition Horse Pellets should be fed alongside high-quality roughage or pasture, which must make up a minimum of 1% to 1.5% of the horse's body weight daily. For an average 500kg horse in medium work, the daily concentrate requirement typically ranges from 3.75kg to 6kg (approximately 0.75% to 1.2% of body weight). To ensure digestive safety and prevent starch overload, it is recommended to split the daily ration into multiple small meals, with no single meal exceeding 2.5kg.
