Carol is an independent equine nutritionist and lectures in equine nutrition for the nationally recognised Australian Certified Hoofcare Course and presents in conferences in Australia and overseas.
She will spend the day explaining how horses digest feed and what is optimal for their health and immune system, and what is not.
The aim is to make feeding as simple and cost effective as can be, optimise mineral ratios and prevent nutrient deficiences.
The topics covered will be -
