Straw can be a useful tool for weight management of horses! 🐴

Depending on the type of horse and their requirements, oat or barley straw can make up 30-50% of the forage ration. This must be introduced gradually and fresh water must always be available. Bear in mind many horses will turn their noses up at first and it may take a few weeks until they start nibbling at it - worth persevering! There are also options for commercial bags of chopped straw chaffs, which can be used similarly.

Straw is generally low in sugar and starch, so can help to ensure the horse always has forage available and a full stomach, whilst limiting sugar intake. The remaining forage ration can be made up of soaked hay, dry hay, haylage, chaff/fibre mashes and/or grass, depending on the horse's needs.

It is worth noting that there is often a misconception that straw cannot be fed to horses due to the risk of impaction. In actual fact, this generally occurs when a horse gorges on a straw bed in a short period of time (e.g. if runs out of hay on box rest). In comparison, the risk of impaction is low and similar to hay/haylage if it is fed appropriately and introduced gradually.

Straw may be particularly useful for an overweight horse that is still not losing weight despite soaked hay and other management changes. It can also be useful if the hay cannot be soaked for any reason.

Note - all horses, especially if fed a predominantly hay/straw diet, should receive a daily balancer to ensure they are receiving sufficient vitamins and minerals.
