      <image:title>Resources - Plants poisonous to horses</image:title>
      <image:caption>Many plants that grow in Australia are potentially poisonous to horses. Horses may choose to eat poisonous plants when there is little alternative forage. Also, seasonal conditions may influence the toxicity levels of certain plants, making them more deadly at various times of the year. An awareness of toxic plants growing in Australian and an understanding of the factors that influence the risk of poisoning will help horse owners keep their horses safe. Pasture management decisions and landscaping decisions should be made with consideration to plants that are potentially poisonous to horses. This book is designed as a guide for horse owners to help them prevent plant poisoning in their horses. It clearly outlines the risk factors and risk minimisation; toxin types: signs of poisoning in horses; description of each plant and their features; property owner management strategies. Plants Poisonous to Horses is published by the Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation.</image:caption>
