Horses today often donât get enough forage. Horses need a bare minimum of 1% of their body weight in hay or grass each day to maintain gut health and motility. That is a minimum of 10 pounds for a 1000 pound horse. 1.5% is recommended for easy keepers, and closer to 2% is recommended for all others.
The basic ration for a horse is hay plus grain. The amount of grain a horse needs depends on the growth or performance expected. The amount of total ration is based on a consumption of 2-1/4 pounds of airdry fed per cwt. Thus a 1,000-pound horse would receive a total daily ration of 22-1/2 pounds. The term ration denotes feed for a 24-hour period. 2  Accustom horses to feed gradually. 3  In general, they maybe given as much hay as they will eat. 4  It is safe to start horses on 1/2 pound of grain daily for each hundred pound's of the animal's weight.
