Farm Horse Feed Ration Changes With Seasons

Farm horse feeding practices vary by season with a shift from corn in January to oats in spring for muscle and endurance. Rations include chopped oats with bran, thrashed oats for quick meals, and occasional cornmeal or corn. Timely feeding, oats through summer, and salt mineral powder support body condition. Timothy hay and chopped oats form the core, with fodder roughage used sparingly in late winter.
