Whole Oats
Versatile Whole Oats Grain — A Higher-Fiber Grain Option Commonly Used Across Horses and Livestock as a Simple Energy Ingredient
Whole oats remain popular because they’re easy to use, versatile, and widely recognized in horse and multi-species livestock settings. Like other grains, oats should be fed with the understanding they’re an ingredient — not a fully fortified ration — so the overall program still needs appropriate forage, salt, and minerals.
