Light or Heavy Oats for Draft Horses Tested
A New Hampshire station report by F W Taylor compares light and heavy oats for draft horses. Three Percheron pairs were fed heavy oats for thirty days then light oats for thirty, with ten pounds daily per horse in three meals plus ad libitum hay. Results show similar weight changes, suggesting light oats have nearly the same feeding value as heavy oats pound for pound, though heavy oats have higher protein and fat and denser kernels. Feeding by measure requires adjustments since heavy oats are denser per quart.
