Abstract/Contents:States that "protein, energy, and mineral intake dramatically impact bone growth and development in young horses." Describes the testing of "turfgrass species being considered for use in horse pastures [that] would have significant seasonal and possibly diurnal fluctuations in protein and minerals." Results include that "protein and mineral content did not show diurnal variations" and "there were nutrient differences among turfgrass species...and among pastures." Concludes that "some turfgrass species selected for their hardiness may be appropriate for use in pastures for adult animals but may not be appropriate for breeding farms unless overseeded with a palatable legume or the horses are fed a mineral supplement."
