Who is Grazey for?
Grazey is for anyone who worries about the amount of sugar and fructan your horse takes in while being out in the field. That can apply to horses vulnerable to Laminitis, but also insuline resistance or simply becoming overweight.
Keeping track of healthy grazing is much more than just a meter that turns green or red. Grazey gives you insight into how WSC values (sugar and fructan) develop, and provides tools to accurately track your own measurements and your horse's health.
Grazey is still in beta. You can use all features for free.
Get started with GrazeyFind the best grazing moments
The level of sugar and fructan (together called WSC) in grass fluctuates constantly. Grazey gives you immediate insight into the current WSC value and a clear hourly forecast for the coming five days.
With this 5-day overview you can see well in advance on which days or hours the sugars are lowest. That way you can better weigh when you can let your horse graze or when to give him more exercise so he can burn those extra sugars.
Personalised pasture management
Grazey calculates the progression of WSC in the pasture based on location and current weather factors such as sun, soil moisture and temperature, but also takes other characteristics into account such as grass type and length.
Because the impact of that grass is different for every horse, this data is combined with the horse's unique characteristics. Such as breed and medical history. This gives the most complete insight to make the right choices every day, tailored specifically to each individual horse.
Use Grazey, but keep the focus on your horse
This app can estimate the sugar level in the grass, but more important is that you keep track of how your horse is really doing. Grazey to monitor and track its health proactively. Note the weight, assess the crest (CNS) and the Body Condition Score (BCS), log the weekly exercise, and feel the digital pulse.
Is the grass favourable in the morning, but is your horse tending towards overweight? Then choose to shorten grazing that day or give him more exercise. Clear charts show the trends of the past months, so it becomes immediately visible how your horse responds to your pasture management.
Your horse is the barometer
Grazey estimates the level of sugar and fructan based on several factors. But no horse is the same. Some horses are simply more sensitive to grass sugars and fructan than other horses of the same breed.
Does the graph in the app, for example, keep turning red, while out in the field you see your horse staying fit and even losing weight? Trust your own eyes and slide the sensitivity in the app down a notch. Grazey adjusts instantly, so you don't get stressed unnecessarily by a warning.
