loginWe made it: the 4th Equine Nutrition and Training Conference is up
and running! Proof is this book. My congratulations and gratitude to all
those involved, with special mention of our partners from Vetoquinol/
Equistro as well as Lohmann Animal Health/Lonza! I thoroughly
enjoyed organising and even more so the hosting of this meeting and
wish to be able to hold another one in 2013! With a ‘little help of my
friends’ this should be made possible!
The aim of the articles in this book is to present and discuss the latest
scientific findings on nutrition and training of horses (News) and
to provide practical advice to the readers. It would be too much of
a challenge to present everything on nutrition and training in one
conference, and therefore, the selection of the references in the
articles on News depends on the authors’ choices. Combined with the
discussions during the conference these presentations should allow
the participants a good insight into each one of the selected subjects
(please also join us in 2013!). The articles on practical advice are very
informative and functional, including in some cases that (practical)
information is lacking or statistically insignificant but practically very
relevant.
Finally, the expanded abstracts on actual and focused research
aspects are of excellent additional value to the section on nutrition
and training of horses in the book. Thank you very much to these
authors for submitting the work in the definite format, going through
the reviewing process to present at the conference and the willingness
to publish the work in this book!
I wish that all those reading the articles find lots of interesting and useful
information! Please send me an e-mail (arnolindner@t-online.de)
and comment on what you would be interested in! Maybe we can
consider it for 2013!
