Feed as you need
The foundation of good nutrition for your horse is adequate roughage and access to fresh drinking water. Supplement this base with concentrates or a balancer depending on the individual nutritional needs of the horse. Use supplements to fine tune.
Feeding recommendations for Cavalor Strucomash Beet
To prepare Cavalor Strucomash Beet, mix 1 part mash with 1.5 part water (60 °C). Leave to soak for 60 minutes. We recommend feeding, per 100 kg of body weight, a minimum of 150 g and a maximum of 250 g per day. For a horse of 600 kilograms, this means a minimum of 900 g and a maximum of 1.5 kg per day.

It is also suitable as a supplement to roughage for older horses or horses with dental problems.
Did you know?
Beet flakes
Beet pulp is a source of dietary fibre, and has many positive qualities. During production, the beets are processed to extract the sugar, so the remaining pulp is low in sugar. It does still contain pectins, which are beneficial to intestinal health. Beet pulp is low in protein, so it can be combined with alfafa, for example. Beet pulp is also a good source of dietary fibre, giving the horse a gradual release of energy and helping the horse feel satiated. It is crucially important to soak beet pulp thoroughly in water. Undissolved beet pulp can cause oesphagal obstruction or colic.
No oats
Oats are a cereal that can be used as an energy source in a muesli for competition horses. It quickly releases lots of energy. This is not needed for recreational horses, or for horses who do not need high energy levels.
Easy to chew
Soaking the mash helps soften the ingredients, making them easy to chew.
With extra fiber
Adding long fibre means that the horse has to chew for longer and increases saliva production. Saliva is not the only benefit of chewing longer. It also causes natural tooth wear, alleviates boredom and ensures that the feed is consumed more slowly. Long fibres also promote intestinal motility, which improves digestion.
