Typically horses are fed to work on farms, be it pulling a plow or herding cattle. A horse requires enough protein and other nutrients to provide adequate energy.

Other farm animals are typically fed to promote growth for slaughter and are generally fed high protein, high fat diets to get them to 'market weight' as soon as possible. Although cows are fed to produce milk and not necessarily for slaughter.
