A concentrated nutritional formula packed with essential nutrients and amino acids but without the carbohydrates - served as a convenient mash.

What is a Genuine Balancer?

Balancers or concentrates are a very useful nutritional tool that can make a valuable contribution to your horse’s diet. A balancer contains a concentrated amount of nutrition in a small daily dose. Genuine balancers contain high levels of essential amino acids, (the building blocks of protein) vitamins and minerals and importantly contain no grains or grain by-products.

Benchmark Balancer Mash® can be fed alone (with the addition of fibre) or it can be fed in conjunction with Benchmark Super Fibre Mash, grains or a high fat energy source.

The applications for Benchmark Balancer Mash® are numerous and include:

• All horses who react to feeds high in starch and sugar.
• Horses at risk of, or suffering from laminitis, cushings, IR, PSSM or EMS.
• Horses on box rest or recovering from injury, illness, or surgery.
• Horses requiring more topline or muscle mass.
• To supplement horses grazing limited or poor-quality pasture.
• Horses prone to weight gain that require a low dose, low carb concentrate.
• Growing youngstock that require a ration high in protein but low in starch and sugar.

Feeding the recommended daily rate of Benchmark Balancer Mash® to your horse will improve any ration by topping up nutritional deficiencies that may occur in fibre, pasture, grains, or poor-quality complete feeds.

Daily Minimum Fibre Requirement for Horses

To enable a horse to maintain a properly functioning hindgut with natural microbial fermentation for complete gut and body health, it is highly recommended that at least 1% of the horse’s body weight be fed as fibre. For a 500kg horse, this is equal to a minimum of 5kg a day in the form of pasture, hay and/or quality alternative high-fibre products.
