Proper Care During Heavy Spring Work for Horses
Guidance on feeding horses in the Corn Belt emphasizes a balanced ration beyond corn alone. A mix of corn 2-5, bran 1-5, and oats 2-5 improves palatability and digestion, while bran aids laxation and cooling. Feed 1 to 1 1/2 pounds per 100 pounds live weight for working horses, reduce on idle days, and consider bran mash or linseed oil meal for digestion if the animal is run down.
