5m PublishingSivumäärä: 362 sivuaAsu: Pehmeäkantinen kirjaJulkaisuvuosi: 2005, 01.01.2005 (lisätietoa)Kieli: Englanti Nutrition is an essential part of daily management of horses. It affects health, welfare and performance. In natural surroundings the horse would spend up to 65% of time foraging for food. The digestive system reflects this behavioural process. Whilst recent advances in equine nutrition have improved our knowledge of how to optimise the feeding of horses under different physiological challenges, this book tries to incorporate the interaction between nutritional and behavioural requirements.
