Nutrition from the gro​und up!
When considering your equine's nutrition, one must not dismiss the importance of forage - both hay and pasture.
Pasture health is crucial to the overall health and wellness of your horse. It is important to remember that
not everything GREEN is GRASS, and weeds will not sustain your horse, nor will they promote growth and development long-term.
Aterak is committed to the health of your equine from the ground up, starting with the
diversity and prosperity of your horses' pastures.
Contact us directly to order our FALL SEASON HORSE BLEND for pastures.
Winter is the best time to restore your pasture's health and diversity, when our horses are resting in stalls and the pasture
can have plenty of time to grow roots and height. We recommend allowing your pasture to grow to at least 12in of height
before allowing grazing to ensure the longevity of the new growth.
Improve your equine's nutrition by investing in the health of your pasture!

Not Everything Green is Grass
Not Everything Green is Grass
More often than not, our pastures are filled with green things that provide very little nutrition to our equines.
Do not mistake weeds for appropriate forage
for your equine.
Compacted, Poorly-draining Soil
Compacted, Poorly-draining Soil
Poorly-draining soil will prevent new growth and drown the existing forage, eliminating our equine's most biologically natural source of nutrition.
Young, New Growth
Young, New Growth
One of the most detrimental mistakes in restoring a pasture is allowing grazing before new growth has growth to a sustainable height. This new growth is not mature enough to sustain neither the pasture
nor our equines.
Long-Stem Forage
Long-Stem Forage
Long-stem forage is the best form of pasture forage, both for the health of the pasture (to promote diversity in the ecosystem), but also for the health of our equines. Long-stem forage provides the best,
most complete nutrition our equines.
