      Thank you, Linda! I am honored to have your thanks, but you must give yourself credit. You found my work, dug in, and took action. You asked questions, attended live meetings, and maintained patience to follow through until you saw Wren canter in the field, which made your heart sing.

      Reply to Soybean meal

      2% of 650kg (1433 pound) body weight = 13kg of forage (pasture and hay).

      Let’s assume the hay is 10% protein. 10% of 13kg = 1.3 kg of protein. But only half of that protein is absorbed by the horse, so the absorbed protein = half of 1.3kg = .65kg, or 650mg.

      The daily protein range is 1.1 to 2.2 g per kg, so a 650kg horse needs 715g to 1430g… Read more
