The answer depends on the context.

If you're talking about one horse:

The HORSE'S tack is dusty.

The noun is HORSE-singular, because you're only talking about one horse. In most cases, you take the noun and add 's to the end when it's singular to make it possessive.

If your're talking about multiple horses:

The HORSES' tack is dusty.

The noun is HORSES- plural, because you're talking about multiple horses. In most cases, you take the noun and add an apostrophe at the end to make it possessive.

The noun horses' is plural possessive, as indicated by the apostrophe after the plural horses.

Example: The horses' stable is beside the barn. (the stable for horses)

The singular possessive of a word may add an S, even when a word ends in S.

The singular plural is horse's.

What is the importance of observing the rules of subject agreement in writing and speaking?

For good communication so people know exactly what you are talking or writing about Consider these two sentences: The girl's horse is sick. - we know from this sentence there is one girl and one horse. Because girl is singular and horse is singular and the verb is is singular The girl's horse are sick. - we know there is one girl and maybe one horse we are not sure because the verb is plural (are) so possibly there is more than one horse.
