  • Enrichment for horses – what do we mean
  • The forage buffet
  • Feeding devices or variations in forage – how is it equine entertainment
  • The benefits of forage analysis 
  • Straw the latest thoughts and research into it’s benefits and application as a forage
  • Slow feeders – what to be aware of
