🐎🥕 A great horse is built on more than great genetics.
In competition horses, nutrition is part of everything that happens before they enter the arena.
Energy to train.
Nutrients to maintain optimal condition.
Hydration.
Recovery.
Well-being.
Genetics can influence a horse’s potential, but nutrition, training, management and environment also play a key role in how that potential develops.
And this becomes especially interesting when we talk about cloning.
🧬 A cloned horse shares essentially the same nuclear DNA as the original, but that doesn’t mean it will automatically develop in exactly the same way or achieve the same sporting performance.
Genetics is the starting point. What happens afterwards matters too.
This World Food Day, we highlight the importance of appropriate nutrition in supporting our animals throughout every stage of their lives.
