I’m currently at the planning stage of a farming project that involves sustainability and natural cycles with minimal human influence. I am trying to get information about horses and I came across your webpage. Maybe one of you experts might know a little about raising free-range horses? My main question is how many acres would I need for one free range horse to survive happily. Also any specific plants or trees that would be better?
Depends upon what part of the country you are in. Some areas a horse per acre and in some 100 acres per horse. Also depends upon what you are going to use them for: riding, farming, just looking at, or even eating?????
