More from Tribute

Essential K GC Plus is Tribute's low-NSC ration balancer with joint support added: glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate and MSM. Like the regular Essential K, it's meant for easy-keeping or overweight horses, or as a top-dress on any other Tribute feed to add vitamins, trace minerals and amino acids.

  • The added glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate and MSM support joint health and range of motion.
  • Low in sugar and starch (NSC), for horses with metabolic disorders and sensitivities. Ask your vet if your horse has one.
  • A low feeding rate keeps calorie intake low for overweight and easy-keeping horses.
  • No added iron. Formulated with pre- and probiotics to support digestive health.
  • Best for horses on hay or pasture that is 50% or less alfalfa (or other legumes). Past that, Tribute points to Alfa Essentials.
  • Tribute says the feeding directions printed on some bags of Essential K GC Plus are incorrect. Use their feeding rate calculator, or ask us, to get the right amount for your horse.
  • Pelleted, 50 lb bag.

We can run the feeding rate with you at the counter.

How to feed it

We recommend 2 or more meals per day. Do not exceed 5 lb per meal (4 lb for ponies, 6 lb for draft horses).

Provide at least 1.5% of your horse’s body weight in quality forage (hay/pasture) daily. (ex. 1,000 lb horse needs 15 lb of forage per day, minimum).

Be sure clean water is available at all times.
