Our horses depend on us to provide them with feed and fresh water daily. It is a big responsibility to take care of a horse, and there is a lot to consider. As we know, horses are hindgut fermenters and should primarily eat forage, but is forage enough on its own? There are many factors that play into the answer to this question, including the nutritional content of the forage, the condition of your horse, and how much it is performing. 

To stay one step ahead of your horse and avoid it either becoming overweight or losing condition, it is important to analyze your forage. Without an analysis, we cannot determine the nutritional content of the feed except by observing the horse's weight gain or loss, and by then, we're already one step behind the horse. With the help of a forage analysis, we can also calculate a balanced feeding plan, ensuring that our horse gets the energy, protein, minerals, and vitamins it needs
