About: As a forage researcher, Kathryn Watts shares her knowledge of carbohydrates in forage and how they affect our equine friends today. Laminitis prevention is her passion and through her articles she helps us to make intelligent decisions about the forage we feed our horses.
Recommendation: These articles are available for free and should be read and reread by every student of the horse. As a hoof care provider you will need to have a good understanding of hay and pasture forage to help your clients make healthy management choices for their horses.
Katy wrote this very thought provoking article in 2020 “Are we selectively breeding for predisposition to laminitis?” We highly recommend you give it a read.
