What is the forage first Philosophy?
At ADM Animal nutrition they believe horses should be fed the way nature intended, with large amounts of forage making up the majority of the diet. That is why they always put Forage First. ADM understands that today’s equines require more than forage can provide (no matter how good). That is where the ADM Forage First Equine feeds come in. Designed to provide the essential nutrients that are lacking in forage, ADM equine feeds can meet the needs of your equine partner without loading them up on the unnecessary things their bodies can’t use. Feed Forage First, feed ADM, feed the way nature intended.

Nutritional management plays a key role in maintaining maximum performance and productivity of horses. One tool, body condition scoring, can be easily adapted and utilized by all owners to manage the proper timing and the amount and type of supplemental feed needed to maximize performance. Body Condition Scoring (BCS) is a classification system used to determine relative fatness or body condition of horses. 

For better health and performance, routinely evaluate the body condition of your horse. A horse’s body condition is a reflection of the balance between energy intake and energy expenditure. • Too much energy intake results in greater body stores of fat. • Too little energy intake results in little or no storage of body fat.  Learn more about how to score you horse's BCS.
