2025 Cool-season Grass Horse Grazing Tolerance Report
Authored by: Gene Olson Ray Smith Chris Teutsch Tim Phillips Laurie Lawrence
Abstract
Cool-season forages such as Kentucky bluegrass, tall fescue, and orchardgrass are dominant pasture grasses for horses in Kentucky. Variety evaluations for yield have been carried out for many years, but little work has been done to evaluate varieties of these grasses for persistence when subjected to close, continual grazing by horses.
