Horse Pasture Management Using Biological Fertilisers, Australia

Innovative farmers are taking a sustainable approach to maximise the use of grazing land and ensure their horses have access to nutrient-rich feed. How do they do it, you ask? By focusing on growing multi-species pasture and building soil fertility in their horse farming systems, and increasing dietary organic nutrition and probiotic support.

Nutrient Dense Grazing

Providing a diverse range of plant species can help deliver a balanced diet for horses. Regenerative horse farmers carefully select and cultivate crops that not only meet the nutritional needs of their four-legged companions but also contribute to the overall health of the pastures.

Healthy soil is the backbone of any successful horse grazing pasture. One of the key ways to build robust soil biology is by encouraging a diversity of grasses in your pastures. This diversity fuels the soil food web and supports a flourishing microbial community.

The secret lies in photosynthesis. Different grass species have varying photosynthetic pathways, allowing them to capture and convert sunlight into sugars in unique ways. These sugars are then exuded from the grass roots and feed the soil microbes.

The more diverse the pasture, the greater the variety of sugars available to soil bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms

This nourishes a thriving, balanced soil food web that can cycle nutrients, improve soil structure, and make nutrients available to plants.

Incorporating a mix of cool-season and warm-season grasses, as well as broadleaf plants, is an excellent way to maximise the photosynthetic potential of your pastures.

Rotational Grazing

Regenerative horse farmers prioritise building soil health through practices like pasture cropping and rotational grazing. By enriching the soil with organic matter and promoting beneficial microbial activity, they create an environment where nutrient density thrives.

Biological Soil Fertility Booster

In the realm of horse farming, ensuring optimal nutrition and digestion is crucial for their overall health and productivity. One effective way to achieve this is by utilising nutrient-dense forage produced through the use of boosting soil biology with Liquid Biological Fertilisers.

Naturally cold fermented Biological Fertilisers deliver balanced organic minerals. Activated with beneficial microbes, these chelated mineral concentrates stimulate beneficial microorganisms in the soil. Increased biological activity then supports crop growth, nutrient density and overall crop resilience.

By incorporating Biological Fertilisers into farming practices, horse farmers can improve the mineral content of their pastures. This translates into better nutrition for their horses, who will then have access to a wider range of essential minerals necessary for growth and overall well-being.

Liquid Seaweed Benefits for Pasture Improvement

Liquid Seaweed is rich in essential minerals such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and trace elements. These nutrients play a vital role in promoting plant growth and development.

Additionally, Liquid Seaweed contains natural plant hormones like auxins, cytokinins, and gibberellins that stimulate root growth, plant immunity, and nutrient density.

Liquid Fish Benefits for Pasture Improvement

Liquid Fish Fertiliser is made from fish discards from processing. It is a potent source of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, amino acids, enzymes, vitamins, and trace minerals.

Cold processed Biofertilisers deliver nutrients that are bio-available for plants to easily uptake. Liquid Fish not only provides essential nutrients but also enhances soil fertility by feeding beneficial microbes in the soil.

Balanced By Nature

Using a combination of Liquid Seaweed and Fish Biofertilisers offers several benefits.

Firstly, they provide a balanced nutrient profile necessary for healthy plant. Secondly, these fertilisers improve soil structure by increasing microbial activity and organic matter content. This leads to better water retention capacity and nutrient availability for crops.

Moreover, the natural hormones present in both Liquid Seaweed and Liquid Fish Biofertiliser help regulate plant growth processes effectively. They promote root development for better nutrient uptake.

By incorporating Biological Fertilisers into your horse farm, you can reduce your reliance on synthetic fertilisers while simultaneously improving soil structure. This approach not only benefits crop productivity but also contributes to long-term sustainability.

“In horses, whose targeted digestive compartment is the caecum-colon, probiotic distribution appears particularly relevant in case of stress (e.g. transportation) or during distribution of high concentrate diet (Table 2). Live yeasts have been demonstrated to elicit an increase in fibre digestibility in the colon and modulate the balance of hindgut bacterial communities, leading to a decreased risk of lactic acidosis.” (Jouany et al., 2008; Médina et al., 2002).
