ik kies voor graan omdat ik wil zien wat ik mijn paard voer, ik wil weten wat er in zit en een lijstje op een zak brokken zegt me niets.

het nadeel van graan is dat je kalk moet bij voeren maar dat neem ik dan maar voor lief.

In addition, forage consumed with grain decreases the amount of the grain’s starch digested in the small intestine and, therefore, increases the amount that reaches the cecum. Excess starch in the cecum causes cecal acidosis, which if sufficiently severe results in diarrhea, colic or founder. The risk of this is decreased by not feeding forage for one hour or more before and for 3 or more hours after feeding grain. However, this risk can be better minimized in most feeding programs by feeding less grain. Not feeding forage and grain at the same time, increases feeding time and labor, and may not be practical in some situations. In addition, grain consumption before forage, as occurs when both are fed at the same time, results in a more intense mixing of ingesta and less variation in the concentration of substances in the horse’s large intestine.
