PRIMEGLO Horse Pellet Premium Nutrition for Mature Horses

PRIMEGLO, #81578AAA24, is the first of its kind, an ultra-premium, pelleted horse feed formulated to meet the needs of typical trail and light performance horses without overdoing the calories and without the need for additional nutritional supplements.

 

The average horse owner feeds 4.5 nutritional supplements, which is very expensive and ultimately results in un-balanced rations. With correctly balanced rations, there should be no need for supplements for coat, hoof quality or digestive support. None of these are necessary when feeding PRIMEGLO according to feeding recommendations.

 

PRIMEGLO is a 2x concentrated feed formulated for a 2-4 lb# feeding rate for typical horses (900-1,200 lb#). This feeding rate results in a feed with one-half or less the calories of typical horse feeds. This also lowers the cost per horse daily, resulting in a more economical total feeding program.

 

PRIMEGLO contains ADM proprietary ingredients specifically blended with the best feed ingredients for overall health, optimal digestion, shiny coats, strong hooves and bloom. PRIMEGLO comes in 5/16 inch pellets that are easy for horses to pick up if dropped, resulting in less waste. PRIMEGLO has a base of alfalfa (known to help prevent ulcers) and soybean hulls and contains HEALTHY GLOTM and StaySTRONG® Metabolic Mineral Pellets with ZinPro®* 4-Plex organic trace minerals, direct-fed microbials, CitriStimTMand Prosponse® brewer’s dried yeast. PRIMEGLO contains 8% fat from stabilized rice bran, Omega Flax® and Soy Shine®. PRIMEGLO is available in 50# poly bags.

 

The official launch of PRIMEGLO was at the Clinton Anderson Tour Stop in St. Paul, MN on June 4-5, 2011.

 

PRIMEGLO is now available nationwide. PRIMEGLO will be promoted through The Horse Show with Rick Lamb, the American Competitive Trail Horse Association and Clinton Anderson’s Downunder Horsemanship as well as national and regional advertising.

Adjustments to feed intake should be based on body weight, condition and activity of the horse and forage quality and availability. Do NOT exceed feeding recommendations. If more energy is needed in the total ration, we recommend adding a HEALTHY GLOTM product or MOORGLO® Limited Starch Supplement according to product feeding recommendations. Any feed changes should be made gradually over a 7-10 day period. Changes in rate of feeding should not exceed 1 pound per horse daily. PRIMEGLO Horse Pellet is an excellent feed for use in broodmare and growing horse rations. Call the Nutrition HELPLINE at 1-800-680-8254 for free horse feeding suggestions.

 

* A GROSTRONG Minerals for Horses product should be fed according to product feeding recommendations or provided free choice in granular, block or QuadBLOCK® form.

 

** FORAGE FIRST Alfalfa or Timothy/Alfalfa Cubes can be used as a good-quality hay source at the rate of 85-90% of the amount suggested for long-stemmed hay (for example, 11-17 pounds daily for a 1,000 lb horse). The cubes can be soaked for horses that have trouble chewing long-stemmed hay.

 

Horses in moderate or heavy work may also require extra energy from HEALTHY GLO Stabilized rice bran/Omega FlaxTMsupplements or MOORGLO Limited Starch Supplement in addition to the PRIMEGLO.
