Tribute Essential K

Essential K® is a low sugar/starch (NSC), no added iron ration balancer designed to be fed to easy-keeping or overweight horses, or used as a top-dress with any other Tribute® feed to provide additional vitamins, trace minerals and amino acids to support performance or enhance topline. This ration balancer is ideal for horses consuming hay or pasture that is 50% or less alfalfa (or other legumes). If feeding hay or pasture that is 50% or more alfalfa, check out Alfa Essentials®. Essential K® is formulated with pre- and probiotics to support your horse’s digestive health.

FEEDING RATE CALCULATOR Use our Feeding Rate Calculator to determine the proper feeding rate for your horse based on life stage, work level and body weight. MEAL SIZE & FREQUENCY: We recommend 2 or more meals per day. Do not exceed 5 lb per meal (4 lb for ponies, 6 lb for draft horses). Provide at least 1.5% of your horse’s body weight in quality forage (hay/pasture) daily. (ex. 1,000 lb horse needs 15 lb of forage per day, minimum). Be sure clean water is available at all times.
