Since the first edition of Equine Nutrition and Feeding was
published in 1986, it has become the seminal work on the subject.
It covers all the key topics that you need to know for your equine
nutrition degree course. This comprehensive and clearly evidenced
textbook covers how food is digested and nutrients are used in
growing, working and breeding horses. It also explains the
scientific basis for calculating nutrient and dietary requirements
in an understandable manner, and shows you how to do these
calculations. Special attention is also given to grassland and
pasture, and to housing and diet-related diseases.
