Horserequire food to maintain bodily condition, provide the raw materials for growth, repair damaged tissues and provide energy for work or exercise.
The horse is a grazing animal, designed to eat almost constantly throughout the day.
Animal feed needs to meet the requirements of the animal. For horse it must contain a certain structure to keep the stomach healthy, and for all animals it must contain dry matter, various groups of nutrients, minerals and trace-elements and should not be mouldy or mixed with dirt and soil nor contain poisonous ingredients (for example pesticides or herbicides on crop residues).
Nutrition for cows being raised for beef production requires diets with a high-quality supply of vitamins, minerals, protein, and water.
Vitamins and min- erals, such as vitamin E, selenium, copper, and zinc, when properly supplemented, can enhance a cow's immunity
Digestion is important for breaking down food into nutrients, which the body uses for energy, growth, and cell repair.
The most common energy feeds available to Horse are based on high-starch grains (corn, wheat), fibrous byproducts (soybean, wheat middlings), or fat sources (vegetable oils).
