Hay and Pasture

(600) Fast Track $20 – near-infrared technology is utilized to provide a rapid analysis of the primary nutrients. Includes moisture, dry matter, digestible energy, crude protein, acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber, Ethanol Soluble Carbohydrates (ESC), Water Soluble Carbohydrates (WSC), starch, non-fiber carbohydrates (NFC), calcium, and phosphorus.

Best use – analytical choice for fast, economical results on hay and pasture.

 (601) Equi-Tech $32 – combines high-tech near-infrared and plasma spectroscopy for a complete nutritional profile. By utilizing this progressive technology, lab efficiency is maximized enabling us to offer you a complete hay or pasture analysis at a reduced cost. Includes moisture, dry matter, digestible energy, crude protein, estimated lysine, acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber, lignin, Ethanol Soluble Carbohydrates (ESC), Water Soluble Carbohydrates (WSC), starch, non-fiber carbohydrates (NFC), fat, ash, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, molybdenum.

Best use – best dollar value for frequent analysis of hay or pasture when a comprehensive profile is desired. 

Hay, Pasture, and Grains

(603) Trainer $71 – utilizes traditional analytical methods to determine protein, fiber, carbohydrates and minerals. Includes moisture, dry matter, digestible energy, crude protein, estimated lysine, acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber, Ethanol Soluble Carbohydrates (ESC), Water Soluble Carbohydrates (WSC), starch, non-fiber carbohydrates (NFC), calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, molybdenum.

Best Use – hays, pastures, or grain where a fundamental overview of essential nutrients is required.

(604) Equine Complete $103 – a comprehensive profile providing complete protein, fiber, carbohydrate and mineral analyses. Recommended for use when working with a nutrition professional with an in-depth knowledge of feed composition, nutrient requirements, and ration balancing. Includes moisture, dry matter, digestible energy, crude protein, estimated lysine, acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber, lignin, Ethanol Soluble Carbohydrates (ESC), Water Soluble Carbohydrates (WSC), starch, non-fiber carbohydrates (NFC), fat (EE), ash, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, molybdenum, cobalt, sulfur, chloride.

Best Use- when a complete nutritional profile is required for the following:

  1. Elite horses – ration is balanced with the utmost care to ensure top performance.
  2. Problem horses – feeding is a challenge and a complete feed and ration evaluation is required to maintain optimum health and performance.
  3. Nutrition professionals engaged in detailed ration evaluation.

(644) Carb Pack $42– provides moisture, dry matter, Ethanol Soluble Carbohydrates (ESC), Water Soluble Carbohydrates (WSC), and starch analyses for owners solely concerned about carbohydrate levels and their effect on horse health. While informative, complete nutrient profiles are recommended for a better understanding of your horse’s diet.
