"Feeding Horses in Australia", John Kohnke. This book provides a comprehensive review of horse nutrition and feeding in Australia. It gives sound guidelines on feeding practices unique to Australian conditions. The important role of pasture is highlighted as a natural feed for horses, and practical recommendations are made on the amount of supplementary feed required relative to pasture productivity.

The book also provides extensive information on the values and selection of feeds needed to formulate a diet to meet a specific horse’s requirements. One unique feature is the simplified method of formulating a ration for a fully stabled horse using a step-by-step process with practical guidelines and minimal use of tables, thus avoiding the need for complicated calculations.
