Kerry replied to the discussion Soybean meal in the forum No Grain Challenge a year ago
Hi Doc T, sorry but I still can’t work out the maximum SBM our horse could have. He’s around 650kg and on the basis of 2% forage I think he could have around 541g of SBM per day. Is that the minimum and could we give him more than 541g and what would be the maximum SBM? Could we also give him Coolstance with SBM if he doesn’t maintain his… Read more

Hi @Kerry – What is a “mug?”
The minimum amount is 1 pound of Soybean Meal (SBM) (measured on a scale) daily for a 1200-pound horse. That’s 454g SBM for a 545kg horse. This assumes feeding forage (pasture and hay) at about 1.5% to 2.0% body weight (average at 1.75%) and roughly 10% protein. Of course, you can’t measure the amount of pasture… Read more

hi @Doc-t Our 26 year old 16hh warmblood is having 2 mugs of SBM 3 times a day with as much hay as he wants to eat and grass when the conditions are good enough to go out. He looks fine for his age but is starting to lose muscle and weight. He’s gently hacked out not more than twice a week usually. We want to give him more SBM to try to… Read more
