Corn's high energy content has led to it becoming known as "too hot" a feed for horses. However, if the horse is fed to meet its energy requirement, corn is an excellent feed.
Steam rolling further processes the corn kernel, creating more surface area for digestive juices and increasing digestibility. The moisture level should be low enough to avoid spoilage during storage. Moldy corn can cause fatal leukoencephalomalacia.

Corn's high energy content has led to it becoming known as "too hot" a feed for horses. However, if the horse is fed to meet its energy requirement, corn is an excellent feed.
Steam rolling further processes the corn kernel, creating more surface area for digestive juices and increasing digestibility. The moisture level should be low enough to avoid spoilage during storage. Moldy corn can cause fatal leukoencephalomalacia.
It can more easily bypass small-intestinal digestion, resulting in colic and/or laminitis if fed in large amounts.

Beet pulp can be dehydrated and used as a source of fiber and energy. It is relatively high in energy and calcium but low in protein, phosphorus, and B vitamins. It contains no carotene or vitamin D. Beet pulp is included in many high-performance diets to help ensure adequate fiber intake while meeting energy needs.
It can be safely fed on a daily basis in larger amounts than the bran products. Shredded beet pulp should be soaked in water before feeding to horses. Beet pulp pellets do not require presoaking.
