Effect of Sward Height on Pasture Nonstructural Carbohydrate Concentrations and Blood Glucose/Insulin Profiles in Grazing Horses

JOURNAL OF EQUINE VETERINARY SCIENCE, 57, 29–34.

By: P. Siciliano n, J. Gill n & M. Bowman n

author keywords: Horse; Nonstructural carbohydrate; Pasture; Grazing; Laminitis
TL;DR: Six mature stock-type geldings with maintenance only requirements were used in a randomized cross-over design to determine the effect of sward height on pasture plant nonstructural carbohydrate (NSC) concentrations and blood glucose and insulin concentrations and analysis of variance for randomized complete block design was used.

Relationships Among Digestible Energy Intake, Body Weight, and Body Condition in Mature Idle Horses

JOURNAL OF EQUINE VETERINARY SCIENCE, 54, 32–36.

author keywords: Weight gain; Maintenance requirement; Body condition score; Energy expenditure
TL;DR: Evaluating the relationships among digestible energy (DE) intake, body weight (BW), and body condition score (BCS) in lean/moderate condition horses found it possible that variation in BW gain arose from differences in basal metabolism and energy expenditure. (via Semantic Scholar)

Weight Loss Management in Client-Owned Horses

JOURNAL OF EQUINE VETERINARY SCIENCE, 39, 80–89.

By: J. Gill n, S. Pratt-Phillips n, R. Mansmann & P. Siciliano n

author keywords: Dietary restriction; Owner compliance; Digestible energy; Pasture; Obesity
TL;DR: Whether a reduction in body weight and body condition score could be achieved through 10% to 20% energy restriction in privately owned and managed horses, similar to previously published research in a controlled research setting is determined. (via Semantic Scholar)
