Directions for Use

Mix daily serve of EVM TropiCAL Blend into horse’s slightly dampened feed. Unlike other Equine Vit&Min blends, TropiCAL includes a half a daily serve of salt which allows the product to be used as a loose lick since horses’ appetites for salt matches their actual requirement. Ideally, the product is best served daily, but when management conditions only facilitate free choice minerals, TropiCAL can function as a loose lick when mixed in a 1:1 ratio with plain salt provided in a free-draining container kept under shelter.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Equine Vit&Min TropiCAL Blend fit into a best practice feeding program?

The Equine Vit&Min feeding system tops up and balances the diet of horses grazing high oxalate pasture. It inputs the minerals lacking independently of protein and energy (calories). This means you can rest assured your horses are getting all their mineral needs (including adequate calcium to balance the ratio with oxalates) even when you don’t need to feed large quantities of fortified hard feeds.

Can Equine Vit&Min TropiCAL Blend be fed free choice?

Although we recommend feeding a controlled daily serve of minerals, the salt levels in TropiCAL blend do allow it to function as a loose lick when mixed in a 1:1 ratio with plain salt. Salt is the only mineral where horses appetite for it actually matches the requirements so when minerals are blended in the correct ratios, horses desire for salt (and ability to stop when they’ve had enough) keeps daily mineral intake within acceptable limits.

Why doesn’t EVM include amino acids?

Simply because most horses don’t need them, and we don’t think you should pay for ingredients you don’t need. Most adult horses get all the protein they need, including the most limiting amino acids lysine, methionine and threonine, from their roughage and energy sources. Breeding and growing horses have higher protein requirements which can be easily met through the addition of a quality protein feed source such as lucerne or full fat soybean meal.

Does EVM contain organic (chelated) minerals?

Equine Vit&Min contains a mix of inorganic minerals and organically chelated calcium, zinc, copper and selenium. Experts recommend organic minerals should be limited to 20 – 30% of the total micromineral content of the additive to avoid the risk of toxicity.

Will EVM make my horse silly?

Equine Vit&Min does not add any energy or calories to the horse’s diet. However, it might make a horse feel better and its body may use the calories it eats more efficiently as its body functions become optimised. This is called feed use efficiency, which can mean a smaller feed each day allows your horse to perform the same work (hooray! –  a smaller feed bill 🎉). It’s a bit like a car’s engine doing more kilometres per litre when fuelled with a higher quality fuel that allows the engine to perform more efficiently.

Do I need EVM TropiCAL-Pro or TropiCAL Blend?

Performance, growing and breeding horses benefit from the support of additional vitamins and probiotics in EVM TropiCAL-PRO. Mature horses at rest or in light work will usually have all their nutrient requirements met from supplementation with Equine Vit&Min TropiCAL Blend.
