Much of your horse’s diet comes from the paddocks they are kept in. So whilst it is difficult to ensure your grass is always balanced for nutrients, it is quite within most budgets to ensure it is a live and healthy source of fibre and basic nutrition. Keeping the pH in the correct range and ensuring the soil profile is aerated are the two basic jobs which make the most difference. We can help with advice in these areas and supply most of your needs.

Actiff Equine Calcified Plus

This combines all the benefits of the natural sources of calcium and magnesium and the Marinure liquid seaweed in one granule. It raises the soil pH, flocculates the clay particles, adds trace elements and stimulates the roots. Being a granule, it spreads more easily through spinners and is active more quickly in the soil. Most fields need 4 bags per acre every other year, but check your pH first. This product can be applied throughout most of the year.

Paddock Grazing Mix

This is a ryegrass free blend of grass species and varieties which are high in fibre and less digestible. They include a combination of hardy and creeping species best suited to keeping your sward intact and repairing the sward after heavy use. These more traditional species are a little more expensive but are more suitable for equines than the more highly “improved” species and varieties used in modern agriculture. In addition we have added a legume for its mineral rich content and its soils improvement characteristics but it is also known to be safe for horses.
