This study aimed at evaluating feeds considered to be suitable for horses by use of comprehensive carbohydrate analytical methods. Eighteen feeds of diverse botanical origin ranging from apple pulp, root crops, cereal grains and roughages were analysed for dry matter, ash, crude protein, fat, carbohydrates and lignin. Carbohydrates were analysed for sugar, starch, fructans, oligosaccharides and non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) using enzymatic-chemical methods and lignin by gravimetry. The results for total dietary fibre (DF) were compared with conventional crude fibre (CF) and neutral detergent fibre (aNDFom) methods. The physicochemical properties were quantified based on swelling and water binding capacity (WBC). Between 755 g and 970 g/kg DM was detected. The highest total sugar content was measured in root crops with 803 g/kg DM in raw sugar beet followed by 581 g/kg DM in carrots. The starch content ranged between 343 g/kg DM and 754 g/kg DM in cereal grains. The DF method detected (P = 0.04) more NSP as compared to the aNDFom and CF methods. The greatest difference between the DF and aNDFom methods was found in root crops and apple pulp in which the soluble non-cellulosic polysaccharides (S-NCP) fraction made up 350–581 g/kg of total NSP. The physicochemical properties were compared to fibre content and were associated to WBC (P = 0.04). The correlation ranged from 0.52 to 0.53 for WBC and from 0.03 to 0.16 for swelling. The S-NCP fraction is lost in the aNDFom and CF methods due to solubilisation, which explains the higher recovery of total NSP by the DF method. This illustrates that a feed's potential as a fibre source may be underestimated depending on the analytical method. Quantifying the soluble NCP fraction is beneficial as it has been shown to have health beneficial properties and contributes to the total energy supply.
