Description
This concise handbook provides evidence-based, practical horse nutrition, accessible to all readers. Standing out from very dense, theoretical and practical horse nutrition books, it arms equine students, veterinary students and horse owners with practically applicable information, bringing theory and practice together.
At the end of each chapter, veterinarian and equine nutrition expert Dr Gulsah Kaya Karasu provides guidance on practical applications, calculations and the real-life use of information. For example, how is gastric ulcer formation triggered by traditional horse feeding? How can the risk of gastric ulcer formation be reduced with evidence-based feeding?
Divided into four parts, the book covers the horse's digestive system, types of feeds, formulating rations and nutrition-related health disorders. Its scientifically validated, practical information will be invaluable for horse owners, students and trainers, equine nutritionists and practitioners within the equine industry.
