fodergiva

Swedish to English Other Livestock / Animal Husbandry Horses - welfare regulations
From animal welfare regulations on the keeping of horses:

1 § Hästar ska utfodras enligt följande:
1. med individuellt anpassad och välbalanserad fodergiva,
2. med daglig tillräcklig tillgång till grovfoder för att tillgodose behovet av växtfiber och sysselsättning, ...

In many contexts this could probably simply be translated as feed, but here I am trying to find a word to distinguish fodergiva from other types of feed such as haylage.
Proposed translations (English)
4 +1 feed

feed

"Fodergiva" includes all that the horse is given to eat: hay, ensilage, oats, concentrate, etc.

You are probably thinking about "kraftfoderergiva", which is the concentrate feed.
