Water - Feed Ingredient
Water is sometimes included in feed formulations for processing and functional purposes rather than as a direct nutrient source. While horses primarily consume water separately from their feed, it plays several key roles in feed manufacturing and preparation.
In pelleting and extrusion, water is used to condition ingredients, improve binding, and facilitate the shaping process. It also aids in heat transfer, which helps stabilize the final product. Similarly, in grain processing methods like steam flaking, water softens the grain before rolling, improving starch availability and digestibility. Additionally, water is sometimes used in the production of molasses-based supplement blocks to aid in mixing and consistency.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Water as an ingredient.
