Yes. This is a good feed for horses. Although it is no match for good green grass. Horses do well on all sorts of fodder but love the green grass.
A Trough
the horses ate some fodder.
I assume you meant, getting fodder into horses? You simply place hay in front of the horse - the horse will begin to eat if hungry. Make sure there is water available at all times.
Fodder
Yes, it is very similar to legume hay, AND BE CAREFUL ABOUT BLISTER BEETLES!! (toxic type of beetles).
Horses eat the vegetation of pastures, and the grass of lawns. They eat fruits, such as apples, from the trees. They eat the fodder in their stalls. They eat desserts and breads out of people's hands. And they eat carrots out of people's gardens.
Horses commonly eat timothy, orchard grass, and bermuda hay. The type of hay can vary depending on the horse's age, activity level, and dietary needs. It's important to provide horses with good quality hay to maintain their health and well-being.
Actually, if there is nothing more interesting to eat, cows and horses will certainly EAT straw. Straw is often used as bedding in horse stall, and many horses eat it. However, straw has about as much nutrition as foam packing peanuts and horses and cows cannot live on such a deficient diet. It's a bit like asking if children eat dirt. Of course they do, but they couldn't live on it. Hay is the proper fodder for farm animals. No, farm animals like horses and cows eat hay, which has nutritional value, but do not eat straw.
fodder is the food for cattle and forage crop is food for animals & horses.
Yes horses often consume soybeans as part of their diet. Most commercially made feed products for horses contain soy in some form and soybean meal is often sold to horse owners as a feed on it's own.
A horse is a herbivore, and the prefered food is grains (corn, oats, barley, soybean meal) and forages such as grasses and legumes like alfalfa or birdsfoot trefoil.
