- Product Highlights
Feeding high-performance sport horses or horses that are difficult to feed poses special challenges. When the ability to ingest feed is reduced, it becomes more difficult to ensure an adequate supply of energy while maintaining a sufficient amount of raw fiber. Accordingly, using energy-rich basic feed is indispensable for healthy nutrition.
The advantage of corn cobs lies in their high raw fiber content combined with high energy density and low protein content. This ensures energy is released slowly and at a constant rate in the large intestine. This is a distinct benefit, especially for horses that have to perform at endurance activities such as distance, versatility and driving sports.
- Especially rich in crude fiber through use of the complete plant
- Appropriate for liver and kidney diets
- High energy density with low protein content and high fiber content
- For build-up of underweight horses and hard keepers
- Provide energy for endurance performance
- For nervous and very temperamental horses
- Features
Nervous and temperamental horses also benefit from the high content of slow-digesting carbohydrates. Energy is released slowly and does not increase the excitability risk of nervous horses.
- Low in protein
- High in energy
- Free of additives
- 9 mm diameter
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Animal Species
- Areas of Use
- As build-up feed in times of increased need
- In underweight and/or old horses for build-up
- For a low-protein diet
- In case of endurance performance (e.g. in endurance or eventing horses)
- Feeding Recommendation
- Dependent on type of horse and performance: 100 to 300 g per 100 kg ideal body weight
- Introduce new feed gradually
AGROBS® recommends softening the cobs through soaking. As mineral supplement, we suggest an AGROBS® mineral feed, adapted to your horse and its needs.
