Voermeesters Protein+

Voermeesters Protein+

Voermeesters Protein+ is a protein-rich topping for horses that require extra protein in their ration.

  • Contains essential amino acids
  • Grain-, molasses- and alfalfa-free
  • Concentrated protein source
  • Supports muscle development

Voermeesters Protein+

A horse’s protein requirement changes depending on its life stage and circumstances. During recovery from intensive training, growth, or ageing, a shortage of essential amino acids can lead to loss of muscle mass, reduced condition, and slower recovery. This specially developed topping provides a high level of essential amino acids in a form and ratio that closely match the horse’s natural needs. It is free from molasses and alfalfa and designed as a supplement to roughage. Protein+ supports muscle maintenance in older horses and aids recovery after illness or injury, as well as growth in young horses.

What truly sets Protein+ apart is its feeding flexibility. It can be used in small amounts as a topping, or as part of a Mix & Match feeding system. This allows you to tailor the ration easily and precisely to your horse’s individual needs, with roughage always as the foundation. The composition is aligned with the horse’s digestive system and developed from our vision of pure feeding: with respect for the animal, grounded in science, and with care for the world around us.

Voermeesters Protein+ is available in 7.5 kg bags.

Application

  • For horses that require additional protein
  • For older horses
  • For horses recovering after illness or injury
  • For young horses

Daily feeding advice

Feed a maximum of 100 grams per 100 kg of body weight per day.

General guidelines

  • Feed at least 1.5 kg of hay (85% dry matter) per 100 kg of body weight per day. For haylage (70% dry matter), a minimum of 1.8 kg per 100 kg of body weight per day applies.
  • Ensure there is always access to sufficient fresh and clean drinking water.
  • The required amount of Protein+ depends on the quality of the roughage, pasture access, and workload.
  • Divide concentrates into multiple portions throughout the day.
  • Preferably feed concentrates after providing roughage.
  • When workload increases, do not only increase concentrates, but also raise the amount of roughage.
