Comparison Between Different Types of Bedding Materials for Horses
Agronomy Research 16(3), 646 655, 2018 https://doi.org/10.15159/AR.18.124 Comparison between different types of bedding materials for horses G. Bambi, G. Rossi and M. Barbari* University of Firenze, Department of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Systems (GESAAF), Via San Bonaventura 13, IT50145 Firenze, Italy *Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract. The sports horse lives a large part of the time inside the pen in constant contact with the bedding. Therefore the bedding material can deeply affect the welfare and health of horses kept in pens. The materials have to ensure the realization of a double aim: to create a comfortable and soft surface on which the animal can stand and relax; to give appropriate hygienic and sanitary conditions. Other important factors influence the choice, such as: the material must not be appetizing for the horse; the litter has to maintain a proper level of moisture, so that the hoof is kept healthy, elastic and hydrated. Also the costs for material and litter management have to be taken into account. In the present study, different organic materials are compared: wood chips, hemp, rice, flax and coconut. The trials took place in five box stalls, with square plan of 3 x 3 m. Environmental data were collected during the trials (air temperature and humidity, ammonia concentration, litter moisture). Management data were also collected, regarding the use of bedding materials, working time, costs. In the paper the main results of the comparison between the different litter materials used in horses pens are presented. Key words: horse husbandry, bedding material, housing, sanitary and hygienic conditions. -

LAYING THE BEDDING It usually takes about 6 to 8 bags of EnviroEquine bedding to create the initial bed in a typical 12’ by 12’ stall. It is important to ensure that the bed is deep enough. Then, sprinkle the EnviroEquine bedding with water - about 1 gallon of water for each bag used. The purpose of this is to activate the bedding's sponge-like properties. You will soon get to know how much water to apply as you'll realise the hemp bedding is highly absorbent. CONTACT A SALES REP TO ORDER.

A good shavings fork will remove the droppings from the top of the bed or you can also use a shovel as this avoids digging the bed up and reduces the amount of bedding taken out. Generally, you will be able to pick out almost entirely manure with hardly any wasted bedding.
