How much hay do your horses need?

Forage is the foundation of a horse’s diet, and for many horse owners, that means hay. Estimating hay needs ahead of time can help you avoid running short, manage costs and make better use of available storage space.

For help estimating hay needs, preparing a forage sample for testing, understanding hay test results or planning a feeding program, contact your local county Extension office [link]: extension.mgcafe.uky.edu/county
