A healthy pasture does far more than make a farm look good. It gives horses room to move, graze and follow the natural eating patterns their bodies were made for. Horse pastures work hard; grazing pressure, heavy traffic, drought, compaction and weeds all take a toll. Keeping a good pasture healthy, or helping a struggling pasture improve, requires consistent attention and a long-term plan.
A horse’s digestive tract is designed to use forage, and horses naturally eat small amounts throughout the day. Their hindgut contains microorganisms that help break down fiber and make use of the nutrients forage provides. A well-managed pasture supports that natural grazing behavior while giving horses the opportunity to move, forage and simply be horses. Taking care of the pasture is part of taking care of the horse.
Graze-ON by Farrier’s Magic gives horse owners a practical way to support a pasture that is already performing well or move a struggling pasture in the right direction. It meets each pasture where it is, supporting the soil and grass while fitting into the everyday realities of managing a working horse farm.
Graze-ON combines corn protein meal (CPM) with sunflower hull ash. The CPM supplies nitrogen to feed established grasses and encourage healthy, dense growth. It also provides natural pre-emergent activity, helping reduce the number of newly germinating weeds that become established.
Graze-ON does not kill weeds that are already growing, which is why regular mowing remains an important part of the program. Mowing helps manage existing weeds and keeps them from going to seed while Graze-ON works to reduce the next generation.
Sunflower hull ash provides potassium to support root development, plant strength and stress tolerance. Stronger roots help grasses make better use of available water and nutrients, improving their ability to handle drought, grazing and high-traffic conditions.
Graze-ON contains no synthetic herbicides and has zero re-entry time; horses, pets, or people do not have to remain off the treated area. Farm life can continue without the interruption required by many conventional treatments.
No two farms have the same needs or budget, so Graze-ON offers flexibility. It can be used throughout an entire pasture or focused on areas that need extra support. The best approach is one that fits your farm and can be maintained consistently.
Graze-ON is one piece of a complete pasture management plan, not the entire plan. Mowing, rotational grazing, reseeding and thoughtful management of drainage, compaction and grazing pressure all matter.
Most importantly, Graze-ON is a program, not a one-time fix. We recommend giving your investment at least three years to work. Improving a struggling pasture takes patience, and maintaining a good pasture requires continued care.
Whether you are working to bring a pasture back or protect the progress you have already made, start where you can, stay consistent and give your pasture the support it needs.
