There's an Agway feed that's right
for every horse...including yours
Which feed for your horse 7
You're concerned about health and condi
tion, of course, but you should also take into
consideration the kind of life your horse leads,
and match feed to job.
Feed requirements for the athlete horse are
different from those of the nursing mare
different for the show horse different for
the horse that's ridden only a few hours on
weekends.
While high quality forage can meet the
needs for maintenance, grains and supple-
must be fed to supply energy needs
growth, condition, and work.
