Tools
Without the knowledge to appropriately manage horses and their diets, even the best feeds and supplements won’t give the desired results. That’s why an educated horse owner is one of the most important components of an equine nutrition plan.
Kentucky Equine Research provides unique tools and resources to help horse owners and managers optimize their equine nutrition programs, using information gleaned from peer-reviewed research.
MicroSteed
MicroSteed™ takes the guesswork out of choosing the appropriate feed and intake rate for your horse. Additionally, users can request help with their ration and interact with equine feed specialists or Kentucky Equine Research staff and obtain a more customized ration when needed.
Gro-Trac
Gro-Trac®, the first equine growth-monitoring software that allows breeders to compare the growth rates of their stock with those of young horses of similar age, sex, and breed, is a valuable management and communication tool between breeding farms, consultants, and owners who cannot see their horses regularly but like to keep abreast of their development.
