Part 1 of 3: With a ration of fresh hydroponic barley grass, maximum performance is achieved on less protein due to better assimilation and digestibility of its daily feed. Horses will generally eat between 11 - 22lb of sprouts per day, depending on the horses daily workload.
Based on feedback from the systems in use at horse studs, spelling complexes, riding schools and pleasure horse owners we can confidently say that you can feed a horse for less than $1.00/day using the fodder solutions system. The figures speak for themselves! Not only do you save money on your feed bills with the fodder solutions system but there is also the added savings of healthier horses and no more vet bills!
See www.foddersolut... or www.foddersolut... for more information. don't forget to watch Part 2 of this video.

The nutrition is in the seed hull of the barley, I like to use the recleaned barley. It is less likely to mold then oats or wheat. The Vitamins and minerals benefits as well as the lack of dirt and sand that comes with dried baled feed. I have been feeding fodder to my horses and chickens for several months now. My chickens love it, my oldest and wisest horse went for it real fast. My 4 yr old was next and my 2 yr old was the big hold out, until I got tough and gave him no choice.

We did not feed them anything else for a couple of days until they started eating the fodder once they eat it they will love it. Horses just seem to be picky our cows took to it day 1. We have been feeding fodder now for about 5 months and the horses will eat it before any hay they are given.

Now it is the first thing they eat before the alfalfa and pellets. My Mare has showed a marked difference in her stamina. Yes it is labor intensive. I built my own racks with a timer, ect. You have to prepare your seed and keep the water clean, otherwise its not difficult. Watch your temps, the closer to 65*-70* the better. No direct sunlight, that could cause mold or slime. If that happens clean the trays with bleach.

@Jefferdaughter 11 лет назад

That depends on the seeds you put into the system. Use only certified organic seeds or grains to avoid that problem. (BTW, if your current feed contains either soy or corn & is NOT certified organic is contains GMO aka transgenics, already. Recently, alfalfa & beet pulp were added to the list of 'approved' GMO crops, but the % of the total supply affected is lower. Not what I want to be feeding.)

Instead of $15.00 for a 100 lb bale I spend appox. $5.00 per 100 lbs. I order the barley from my local feed store. I live in AZ and this has cut my costs, and also has cut back on waste. My horses appear happier and healthier.

The site Horse.com has a vet that says fodder does NOT have enough calcium in this system, causing weakness in bones, fractures and several other problems. If you Fed a calcium supplement , salt lick maybe this would be a good idea.

@patriciahurter 13 лет назад

@molinobeer Yes, you just use regular water. You need to put a minimal amount of chlorine in the water (one small tablet per week, about) to prevent growth of mold, but that is it.

@Jefferdaughter 12 лет назад

Properly managed pasture is the best way to feed a horse - as nature intended. But few have enough land, or know how. A great idea for those who would otherwise depend on bagged feed. Wonder how competitors take it with them?

@JessSuave 11 лет назад

We do this for our rabbits, homemade system using flood and drain with standard greenhouse flats. I use winter wheat seed since no one around here sells barley. They do great on it! If I still had horses I'd feed them this way too.

@Jefferdaughter 11 лет назад

It's just 6 days or so - basically these are sprouts. One commercial producer of sprouts for humans says enough light to read by is sufficient. Too much light encourages algae, especially w /overhead spraying. This system can be very useful for those w/limited land, but I might go with a 'flood & drain' system. Pounds produced includes H2O so it sounds more impressive than dry matter. The grain must be purchased, plus electricity. But it is better than feeding dry grains to herbivores!

@molinobeer 13 лет назад

I'm thinking about buying this system but one thing that seriously gets me concerned is the chemicals put in the irrigation water, I have heard that they can be harmful. Can this be done with just water?

@RagTak1 11 лет назад

there are so many different types of barley. What type of Barley are you using?

@triantis35 11 лет назад

B ut what is the dark collor seeds that I see they put in there?? is it some kind of nutrient for the plant to grow??

@triantis35 11 лет назад

what is it that you put in the seed that looks like raisins???

@fahad2010stc 12 лет назад

اعتقد ان هذه الفكره و الافكار المشابهه عطيه من الله كى نقوم با البدء ببرنامج طموح تتضافر فيه الجهود من اجل توفير فرص زراعيه ناجحه و مجديه خصوص للطلبه المستجدين بعيدا عن المناهج التى دؤرسوها فى مراحل التعليم المختلفه و التى لا تلامس الحاجه و الواقع المحيط. حيث يفترض البدء بهذه البرامج و التى سترفع الانتاج و كذلك الفرص الوظيفيه لهم و باارباح جباره انشاء الله و لجميع الخرجيين ( خريجو التكييف و الكهرباء و كذلك الميكانيكيه)

A potting time is predetermined or proportionate to the conditions;

@RagTak1 11 лет назад

what type of barley? i am calling around to find seeds.. had no idea there were so many types of barley seeds?

@impactodelsurenterprise2440 6 лет назад

So there's no need for supplements with this feed?

@Gunnarsguns 12 лет назад

Isnt this a much better solution than feeding cows corn?

@FancySassy80 11 лет назад

can you use any seed to use as fodder, I want to grow just timothy so can i use regular timothy seed to grow fodder

@digitaldivin3 11 лет назад

from what ive heard yes.

@AsHwH 12 лет назад

how does it grows in the dark

@AtrumMixer 12 лет назад

I don't know what I think about this. Is it genetically modified in any way?

@nafsearthling3214 9 лет назад

Nice, but what you gonna do when mold will appear ? as soon as it will appear, you won't feed your animals

@travelinthru9519 5 лет назад

You feed it right away so there is no mold

@ksojerio 11 лет назад

OMG! How could a 1-2 horse operation afford one of those?

@hooker21fly 11 лет назад

It s enough nutrition and mineral vitamines to give fodder everyday to my diary cows?or not?sorry for my english because i m from greece.

@garyann4 11 лет назад

whoa that is what is wrong now to many people think they know whats best for everyone else. It is a great system but it is also time consuming to feed this way. My wife spends a few hours a day with out fodders system. There is never a one size fits all solution for everyone. Laws and Government are always bad ways to force people into your way of thinking.

@timscroggins2345 2 года назад

You get 100%

@MangoDaisy 12 лет назад

Where do you get the seeds?

@TametGould 11 лет назад

Anyone have suggestions, my horses will not eat it. :-(

@Jefferdaughter 11 лет назад

If you have as much pasture as some of the images shown, why not make sure the soil is well mineraized (Azomite, Desert DinaMin, etc), lime or gypsum if needed, and section of the pasture to allow it to regenerate itself. Managing the horses & pasture as close to the way they function in natural eco-systems as possible, and both will 'bloom' with health. A wide array of plant species in pastures provides more complete nutrition & resilience to pastures. It's cheaper, easier & eci-friendly.

@ikambor 13 лет назад

It should be a LAW that this is how they are fed,, then systems will change to make this the norm and in everyone's reach

@kenmandah8934 8 лет назад

this wonderful

@TheOrionRebel 12 лет назад

Somethimes lesgislation is required to force people to do the right thing. Veterinarians and Feed companies aren't going to promote this system because they will make less money. If the indusrty leaders won't provide support because of economics then it will take lawmakers to facilitate the change. Pollution control works the same way.

@unitedstatesdale 12 лет назад

My Cattle would stampede if they had to eat this everyday. Wheres the Minerals coming from ? Liquid Fertilizer ?

@bryncomeaux 13 лет назад

if you need a law mabey the idea s not good enough to work on its own how do you justify using law you need an explanation as to why a law would be appropriate here.

@lXOFiXl 12 лет назад

5:07 فرس يبغالها استنبات سريري ههههههههههههههه

@cyberknight2010 12 лет назад

seriously/ the minerals are in the feed, your cattle would benefit and so would your wallet, no additional supplements needed

@MonopolyBag 12 лет назад

Or candy for that matter!

@lucasstoehr 11 лет назад

So a person tells you that they are using a system and it's saving them money. Also their horses seem healthy after using it. I'm not sure what you're so riled up about. It's closed minded people that think they have things all figured out that through the biggest fits. Doesn't seem fair to judge a system(of any kind) if you've never tried it. If you spent 30 minutes on RU-vid, you'd find hours and hours of people reporting how this benefits their animals and has saved them money.

@akselschmidt501 10 лет назад

With this kind of system you actually lose from 20 to 30% of dry matter. It's a really expensive way to produce fodder...

@akselschmidt501 10 лет назад

si, de eso estábamos hablando con mis padres el otro día. no es tan genial como suena.

@huntingtonbeachify 12 лет назад

yes lol

@janking3355 5 лет назад

I would have actually watched your video if you hadn't included animal abuse footage of a gaited horse, obviously at a show. Thumbs down to animal abuse!

@travelinthru9519 5 лет назад
