The United States Dressage Federation (USDF) has named Nutrena® the official feed sponsor of the federation. The three-year agreement makes Nutrena® the official horse feed of USDF.

“This new sponsorship broadens our support of the dressage community,” said Deb Correll, marketing services manager for Nutrena® feeds. “We look forward to helping USDF members achieve their performance goals, and provide them with the latest information and innovation regarding equine preventative care and nutrition.”

USDF is the country’s only nonprofit membership organization dedicated to the promotion of dressage, with a focus on education. “It’s that education element that makes Nutrena® a great sponsor,” said Linda Schultz, director of marketing for USDF. “Not only does the Nutrena® brand offer quality products, but Nutrena® consultants are also committed to educating horse owners.”

Dressage champion and Olympic medalist Debbie McDonald has fed her horses Nutrena® products for more than six years. She says that optimum nutrition is vital for horses to develop, stay healthy and perform.

“I continue to be pleased with the way my horses look and feel, and the education I’ve received from Nutrena® consultants is amazing,” McDonald said. “I am excited that Nutrena® is the official feed for USDF, and I hope members take advantage of Nutrena® brand products and expertise.”

Using the highest-quality ingredients and the most up-to-date nutritional technology, Cargill manufactures and markets a complete line of Nutrena® brand feeds and supplements that help horses maintain optimal health throughout all stages of life. For more information, visit www.nutrenaworld.com.
