Horse Nutrition

Recommended Posts

I'm on the look for a good Book about Horse Feed & Nutrition/science that my old man wants. There is a specific one but he can't tell me a lot about it but I'm sure he will know it when he sees it and anything I've come across so far doesn't seem to be the one. It's been around for a few years now.

I'm sure people on here will have a few ideas ?? Any ideas appreciated. 

Cheers

 The R H Kerrigan book "Practical Horse Nutrition" (first published 1986, 3rd edition 1994) was used as a text book by Waikato Tech a few years back when I did a course. It was very thorough. The author is Australian.
