The best feed, for all horses, is forage 24/7 out in a pasture- but not overly rich grass like alfalfa.
In the summer horses mainly eat grass but, they may need restricting on this if they are prone to laminitis if that is the case then feed more hay to supply them with enough forage and, if needed you may need to feed the horse/pony concentrate foods such as oats especially if they are in hard work
The age of a horse is important when determining how much to feed it. Horses that are growing need more nutrition than a horse who is not growing or working. Horses who are working hard, breeding, or are in foal or lactating also need more feed. Sometimes very old horses require more feed to keep them healthy because their bodies aren't as efficient at using what they are eating.

The amount of feed that should be given to a pastured horse will vary from horse to horse. Some horses may not require anything if the pasture quality is really good or if the horse is not in work or an easy keeper. However if the pasture is not of good quality then the horses may need at least supplemental hay and possibly a hard feed if the horse is a hard keeper or in moderate or higher work.
if you want to become a horses farmer, all you need to do is take care of it. You need to feed it, clean its stall, groom it every day, ride so it can get fresh air, and much more. It actually is a big responsibility so it should be really hard.
Sweet feed is not recommended for young horses. Foals do best on their dams milk until they are weaned, then they do best on good quality hay and a vitamin and mineral supplement. Foals do not need extra hard feeds while growing. As a side note sweet feed should only be fed to horses with no known health issues and that are in work.
This is one thing that you can do, but they are much more healthy when you feed them twice a day.
Oats and grains are high energy foods, great for horses that get frequent exercize.
put some horse food into a bucket after the horses work has finished the best food to feed working horses is baileys golden chaff mixed with some speedy beat and baileys horse and pony cubes which is being made for working horses. and put anything else you need in your horses feed.
horses that are frequently exercised need feed with higher fiber and less suger,
some horses stay on pastures and as long as there is plenty of water, should be fine with just grass. that is how our horses are. but with horses that stay in stables and depend on us to feed them, you may need to ask a friend or neighbor to look after them and give them feed hay and water.
It depends how hard they are worked, but most do.
