EquineEquine Sessions

World championship of horses. How we can take equestrian sports beyond 60M horses and foster a deeper understanding of agriculture in the process?

Breakthrough in nutrigenomics – Now that the equine genome has been mapped, what does it mean for us? Can we predict a derby winner?

The horse’s cecum and colic – How they are interrelated and how we can overcome the dreaded colic by focusing on the basics

The Horse – Never intended to be anything but a grazer. How understanding cecum fermentation can be the basis for all equine nutrition

Mineral nutrition – Raising horses with less waste and improved metabolism in an environmentally green way. What are the options?

Keeping toxins out of equine diets in 2010 – In 2001 Kentucky lost a whole season of foals, and many believe this was related to mycotoxins. The condition was called mare reproductive loss syndrome (MRLS). Knowing that this year’s grains are coming from waterlogged fields, are we ready to prevent another catastrophe? Could quality control concerns with feed ingredients contaminated with toxins, lead, or other harmful substances be just around the corner?

Biggest single movement of horses across the Atlantic since World War II – Final countdown to the world championship of horses, the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games: What it means for equestrian athletes; what it means for a global industry
