Baileys produce a practical guide to equine nutrition called “Feeding Made Simple”. This thirty four page, full colour booklet is intended to do just what it says – make feeding simple! From the basics about the digestive system and rules of feeding, it then takes readers on a guided tour of the ingredients used in modern compound feeds and helps them understand what’s written on the outside of the bag. “We realise that, although many of the products available today were developed to make horse owners’ lives easier, people often find the whole subject rather confusing,” says Baileys Marketing Manager, Jane Buchan. “With Feeding Made Simple and the Horse Owners Feed Knowledge Awards, we hope to help horse owners understand the sorts of products that are available and feel more confident about making an informed choice.”
With guidelines on assessing a horse’s condition then calculating a balanced ration based on temperament, work load and body weight, Feeding Made Simple works through the whole process of deciding what to feed and why. With a cover price of £3.00, the booklet can be ordered through the website (plus 50p p & p) by ordering Feeding Made Simple.
