Abstract

The horse industry has increased greatly during the past 25 yr. During that period universities and experiment stations have greatly expanded their equine teaching and research programs. Although several research areas such as genetics and behavior have been investigated, the primary areas have been nutrition and reproduction. Recent advances in these latter areas are reviewed and suggestions for further research are given. It is concluded that significant advances toward a better understanding of equine nutrition and reproduction have been made but much more research is needed. Universities are encouraged to continue to supply highly trained individuals to an industry that is becoming more complex.

Key Words: Equine • Horses • Nutrition • Reproduction
