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.

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
