Horses consume a great deal of food, making providing for their needs a matter of some concern when travelling through an area that does not offer good grazing opportunities. Though feed is inexpensive, it is heavy and bulky, and carrying enough of it to feed a horse for a significant length of time poses several difficulties. Oat cakes are the perfect resolution to this problem.

They are condensed disks of oat and grain, designed to provide enough food for a horse for one day while weighing less and taking up less space than normal feed.
