Jones PowerEdge 618 Performance Horse Feed – 25 kg Canada
Support the nutritional needs of active and working horses with Jones PowerEdge 618 Horse Ration, a premium-quality, texturized sweet feed manufactured by Jones Feed Mills. Supplied in a convenient 25 kg bag, PowerEdge provides a mid-fat, high-fibre feeding option for horses that require more dietary energy than animals in maintenance or light work.
Nutrition for Working Horses
Jones Feed Mills recommends PowerEdge for working horses with higher energy requirements and includes it among its options for horses performing medium work. Its combination of fat, fibre, protein, vitamins and minerals makes it a practical choice for pleasure horses, regularly schooled horses and other active animals whose workload and condition justify a performance-oriented ration.
The manufacturer’s August 2024 equine brochure lists PowerEdge at 12.5% crude protein, 6% crude fat and 17% crude fibre. A newer 2025 brochure appears to list 14% protein, 6% fat and 16% fibre, suggesting that the formula or published specification may have changed. The guaranteed analysis printed on the current bag should therefore be used as the definitive specification before publishing nutrient percentages online.
Mid-Fat, High-Fibre Sweet Feed
The texturized sweet-feed format combines ingredients in a palatable ration that is easy to portion as part of a carefully managed equine feeding program. Its mid-fat profile provides additional dietary energy, while the fibre content contributes to a more fibre-focused ration than conventional low-fibre grain feeds.
PowerEdge is intended for horses with meaningful energy requirements. It should not automatically be selected for idle horses, easy keepers or animals requiring a medically managed low-sugar or low-starch diet. Feed selection should reflect the horse’s body weight, workload, age, forage quality, body condition and health history.
Feeding and Management Guidance
Introduce PowerEdge gradually when changing from another ration. Feed it with suitable good-quality forage and maintain continuous access to clean, fresh water and salt.
Jones Feed Mills’ complete-ration guidance recommends approximately 0.5–1.5 kg per 100 kg of body weight daily, adjusted according to workload, body condition and hay quality. However, always follow the directions on the current bag and obtain advice from a veterinarian or qualified equine nutritionist when necessary. Weigh each serving instead of relying solely on scoop volume, and divide larger daily quantities into several meals.

What horses is Jones PowerEdge intended for?
It is designed for working horses with higher energy requirements and is listed by Jones Feed Mills as an option for medium-work feeding programs.
Is PowerEdge 618 a pellet?
No. The manufacturer identifies PowerEdge as a texturized sweet feed, not a pelleted ration.
What is its guaranteed analysis?
Published Jones Feed Mills brochures do not currently agree: the August 2024 brochure lists 12.5% protein, 6% fat and 17% fibre, while a newer 2025 document appears to list 14% protein, 6% fat and 16% fibre. Confirm the figures printed on the current 25 kg bag.
How much does the bag contain?
The Chatham Farm Feed & Supplies product listing identifies it as a 25 kg bag.
Is PowerEdge suitable for easy keepers?
It is formulated for working horses with higher energy needs. An easy keeper or lightly worked horse may require a lower-energy ration, depending on its forage, condition and health.
Is PowerEdge corn-free or low-starch?
The manufacturer does not place PowerEdge in its explicitly corn-free fat-and-fibre range. Do not advertise it as corn-free, low-sugar or low-starch unless the current label or Jones Feed Mills confirms those claims.
Can PowerEdge replace hay?
Do not reduce or replace forage without following the current label and obtaining professional nutritional guidance. Horses normally require an appropriately managed forage-based diet.
Where can I buy Jones PowerEdge horse feed near Chatham?
It is available from Chatham Farm Feed & Supplies in Blenheim, Ontario, with online ordering, store pickup and delivery in eligible areas.
Important Page Recommendation
Replace broad claims such as “promotes strength, endurance and overall well-being” with the specific, manufacturer-supported description above. Also photograph the current bag’s guaranteed-analysis label and confirm whether the newest formula is 14% protein/6% fat/16% fibre before adding those figures to Wix.
