Why 32% Protein?
Because of the low 1-2 lb feeding rate, protein and other nutrients must make up a larger percentage of the Enrich Plus™ ration balancing feed to help ensure your horse is getting enough nutrition. One pound of Enrich Plus™ ration balancing feed provides 145g of protein, roughly equal to the 136g of protein in 3 lbs of a traditional 10% concentrate feed.

Directions
Feeding Recommendations:
Enrich 32® Supplement is designed to complement and fortify moderate/good-quality forages. These types
of forages are usually grass or mature legumes and may vary in protein content anywhere from 5-17%.
The feeding recommendations are based on the following assumptions: an expected mature weight of
approximately 1,100 pounds, the horse is consuming at least 2.0%b of its body weight in a
moderate/good-quality hay or pasture (dry matter).
For horses that do not approximate this expected mature weight (such as miniature horses, ponies
and draft horses), feeding rates for mature horses at maintenance can be estimated based on
providing approximately 1/4 pound of Enrich 32® Supplement with every 5 pounds of hay fed.
Always provide a minimum of 1% of the horse’s body weight in hay or the equivalent in pasture
(approx. 30 lbs. of growing pasture would be required to equal 10 lbs. of hay on a dry matter basis).
