The differences between horses used in war, agriculture, and transportation and how they were fed for those uses versus how they are fed nowHow and why the industrial revolution put a halt to equine nutrition researchWhat has been the greatest advancement in equine nutrition research that we can apply to our modern horsesThis episode takes us on a journey through time to learn just how observant horse owners were, even without the science, to determine what a horse might need to eat in their diet to handle their workloads. While horses provide more recreation and competitive opportunities for us now, they were crucial for survival for generations before us.
