I think that roughly I need to feed 2.5% of my horse's bodyweight in feed and that as he is only in light work it needs to be about 75% forage and 25% concentrate with no more than 2kg of concentrate in one feed. He is about 670kg so he needs aboput 17ks of feed a day with about 4.25 kgs of concentrate. I would like to look at feeding him stratights and am not sure of the proportions I need to feed.
Does anyone know if I have got the above about right and also can anyone recommend a book/s on equine nutrition that is suitable for someone who doesn't have a degree in the subject?
