WHAT DOES NOSEBAG MEAN IN ENGLISH?

nosebag

Feedbag

A feedbag, feed bag, feeding bag, nosebag, or morral, is a bag, filled with fodder, and attached to the head of a horse, enabling it to eat. The main advantages are that only a small amount of the feed is wasted, and it prevents one animal consuming the ration of another. It can be made of leather, reeds, but more commonly is a thick fabric or light canvas. Some modern designs are made of cordura or other durable nylon, with a solid bottom and mesh sides for ventilation. To access the portion of the feed near the bottom of the bag, the horse needs to be able to touch its head to the ground, allowing it to push its nose into the end of the bag. When a horse uses a feedbag for the first time, offering it in a hand-held position, without strapping it on, may allow the horse to become accustomed to it. This can reduce the risk of the horse panicking. Care must be also taken to adjust the bag to ensure that the horse can breathe easily. For extended rides, a plastic bag can be placed inside, allowing it to serve as a water bucket, with the head strap being used as the handle.
