BELOW IS AN CLIP FROM THE NORTHAMPTONSHIRE GRASS PROJECT; Horses and ponies have an increasingly important role to play in managing and encouraging wildflower rich meadows. This relationship is mutually beneficial to both horses and wildlife because managing your grassland to enhance your horse’s health and wellbeing will also, as a side effect, encourage wildlife. This is because the dietary requirements of horses differ from other herbivores; they require high fibres and minerals and low proteins and sugars – in contrast to modern breeds of dairy or beef cattle. Wildflower grasslands contain a variety of grasses and wildflowers which cater very well for the specific dietary requirements of horses, both through direct grazing and as hay. Further guidelines to horse pasture management can be found by clicking here. THESE BALES ARE NOW BARN STORED IN AN OPEN FRONTED, VENTED BARN. DELIVERY IS AVAILABLE, PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR DETAILS.
