Our new and improved horse feed
Sollio Agriculture’s range of horse products was revamped with new formulas and carefully selected ingredients. Read on for answers to the main questions you might have about the changes.
Why was the line of horse feeds and supplements revamped?
This product revamp was achieved by combining the following ranges to create the new Sollio Agriculture horse feed line:
Célébrité/Québec and Ontario
Atlantic Horse feeds/Atlantic provinces
Legacy Horse feeds/ Atlantic provinces
We used this opportunity to capitalize on our strengths and expertise to develop even better performing products that meet the current needs of equestrian centres.
We have maintained all the nutritional benefits of our feed and taken our range to the next level based on the latest international research in horse nutrition.
What are the major changes made to the feeds and supplements?
To start, every product was carefully analyzed, and each ingredient was optimized by selecting, for example, the most digestible sources of fibre and starch and those that have a positive impact on intestinal flora balance.
Then, the levels of selenium were increased across the entire product range. The selenium used in Sollio Agriculture’s horse feed and supplement formulas is always 100% organic.
Many new products were also introduced to meet the needs and demands of equestrian centres.
Do we need to gradually transition from the old horse feed line to the new one?
Yes, when possible. Horses are creatures of habit and can detect even the most subtle changes in the taste and smell of their feed.
If you still have the previous feed in stock, gradually transition to the new line over a few days. Mixing the products for one or two weeks will help your horses feel secure and make the transition easier.
You do not need to worry, however, if you no longer have leftovers of the previous products. If that is the case, we suggest that you gradually introduce the new feed over a few days by starting with a smaller ration than usual.
For example, if your horse usually eats 1.5 kg of Lino-Force (old product) per day, you can start by serving it 500 g of LinoFibre (new product) for a few days, then 1 kg, and gradually increasing the portions until you reach the horse’s regular ration.
The transition period is different for every horse, but it should normally last between one to two weeks.
Where can I buy Sollio Agriculture’s new horse feed line?
The line of horse feeds and supplements can be found through Sollio Agriculture's cooperatives network in Quebec and Ontario. It is also accessible through Coop Country Stores or retail locations in the Atlantic provinces.
