We make Equi-lise using all-natural ingredients. Because we don't use chemical or acidic forming nutrients, we feel it hasn't been necessary to organically certify Equi-lise. However, if this is a requirement for your property, we’ll make a batch of organically certified Equi-lise. Additional certification costs and minimum order quantities will apply.

We recommend that you move your animals out of the paddock before you apply Equi-lise. Then move them back when you are happy the pellets have broken down enough. The pellets start breaking down as soon as they come into contact with moisture, and you’ll notice the pellets will be soft after a few days.

The pellets taste a bit like chalk and are not all that desirable by animals. There isn’t anything in Equi-lise that would harm your animals, and horses don’t like the taste of them that much! We have had a few clients who spread Equi-lise while their horses were in the paddock. However, you know your horses best and what they like to eat.

Dung and urine provide plenty of potassium (K) which can cause an imbalance with Ca and Mg, limiting pasture growth, soil and plant health and palatability. As with potassium from dung and urine, nitrogen is deposited, which can cause pastures to run ‘hot’ (as with certain types of pasture species). When excess nitrogen leaches, it takes essential soil neutralisers – Ca and Mg with it, and this is why horse paddocks become 'sour' over time.
