HUNTERS STEAM ROLLED BARLEY 20KG

Barley has been a staple grain in horse diets for generations — and when it’s steam rolled, it becomes even more digestible and useful. This process involves lightly steaming the grain to soften it, then rolling it flat, making it safer and more efficient for horses to eat and digest.

Barley is higher in energy than oats but lower in sugar than some other grains. It provides a dense, slow-release energy that’s ideal for performance horses, horses in moderate to hard work, or those needing extra calories for weight gain.

Steaming and rolling improves the digestibility of barley, helping horses get more nutrition from every mouthful — especially important for horses with dental issues or those that struggle to maintain condition.

Barley is a great feed for building and maintaining muscle and condition, making it popular for show horses, broodmares, and horses recovering from illness or work.

Steam rolled barley has lower sugar than many other grains, which may make it a suitable choice for horses that need energy without the sharp rise in blood sugar levels. That said, it should still be fed in controlled amounts, especially for horses with metabolic concerns.

Horses generally find steam rolled barley very palatable, and it blends well with other feeds like chaff, lucerne, or pellets for a balanced ration.
