This equates to 20 pounds of dry forage per day for a 1000-pound horse. Green Meadow Forage recommends that you weigh the proper amount of forage to ensure proper feeding. Green Meadow Forage also recommends that pelleted and cubed forage not be the sole source of forage, since feeding some long-stem forage such as hay may help eliminate boredom and prevent stall vices.
