Last week we had a visit from Robbie Johnson and Andrew Elson from JT Johnson and Sons in Kapunda to put the final touches on the release of the new JT Johnson Natural Formula range of feeds. We were joined by JT’s Victorian consultant Julia Stewart (one of Hi Form’s sponsored riders). We visited distributors in the state and everywhere we went (all five of us) we were welcomed with enthusiasm and excitement about the new range of feeds.

Certainly for Antoinette it is a dream come true having worked on formulating a range of feeds since 2000 and also a privilege to be working with Robbie and the team at JT Johnson.

Introducing JT Johnson Natural Formulas…. A world First Synergistic Natural Feed

History: The JT Johnson & Sons story began in 1923 when company founder John Theodore Johnson established a small chaff mill plant in Stockport, South Australia. The company is currently under fourth generation management and remains 100% family owned and has grown to a big business servicing Australia, Japan, South East Asia and the Middle East.
JT Johnson Natural Feeds will be released officially in February 2102; these feeds have been formulated by Hi Form’s Nutritional Therapist and Medical Herbalist, Antoinette Foster
JT Johnson Natural Feeds are a world first, synergistic feed, dust and mould free, export quality, increase digestion and utilisation, improve overall health and wellbeing, skin and coat condition and encourage normal chewing. Each feed is beautifully balanced. The high performance feeds in the JT range are designed for Race Horses in full work, they have also been designed to use with Hi Form’s new racing formula Oxydane™.


There are two high performance feeds Velocity 1 and Velocity 2 containing high energy levels. There are also two formulas for Brood mares, weanlings and yearlings Mare and Foal Good Pasture and Mare and Foal Poor Pasture and for yearling preparation there is BodyBuild Y specifically designed to build top line and muscle tone.


JT Johnson Natural Formulas are very cost effective and high levels are not generally required. They are simple to feed as no other chaffs are required only hays. JT Johnson Natural Formulas are a complete feed, but can also be mixed and matched with other feeds in the range if necessary, depending on requirements.


JT Johnson and Hi Form releases a 44 Booklet next month on the complete range of feeds and the Hi Form range. This booklet also includes cutting edge up to date information for all horse owners, breeders and trainers.


You can also phone our office on 1300HIFORM  03 97981000 or email enq@hiform.com.au to order a free booklet and find out more about the JT range or contact JT Johnson and Sons on 08 85662204 or email Julia julias@jtj.com.au  www.jtj.com.au

WELCOME BACK - FLOODS - STATEMENT ABOUT PRIME EQUUS

The Hi Form office is back on deck today and although it's always hard to start work after a holiday, we are looking forward to a successful and exciting 2011!!

Obviously the first thing we want to say is that our hearts and thoughts are with all of our customers, friends and families in Queensland and Northern NSW, and other parts of Australia affected by the tragic floods and fires during the last few weeks. Anyone wanting to donate goods please get in touch with Nicci here as she is working as part of the Big Equine Wet Appeal which you can find information on through Facebook here. Stay safe and take care of each other. We are thinking of you always through this diificult time.

In other news we would like to make the following statement in regards to Prime Equus and Damien Taylor. For further information you can contact the office. This statement has been made about the situation...

"Antoinette Foster and Hi Form Australia Pty Ltd wish to inform you that approximately 12 months ago an agreement was entered into with Prime Equus and it's proprietor Damien Taylor, as far as using formulae developed by Antoinette in products that were to be sold by Prime Equus.

Unfortunately the arrangement was shown as unsatisfactory and Antoinette and Hi Form have severed all relationships with Prime Equus and Mr Taylor.

We cannot recommend that you purchase any of the feeds from Prime Equus which are stated to have been manufactured under the aegis of Antoinette Foster or Hi Form."

Nicci at Hi Form is busily preparing for Equitana. "Getting ready for Equitana is quite a massive effort" says Nicci who designs the stand, marketing material and artwork for Hi Form. "This year we are sharing space with Prime Equus so it is a little different to usual. Last time (2008) we went with the Hi Form Equin Kitchen theme and had a massive backdrop covering one entire wall. This year we are restricted somewhat due to having one wall instead of two but I think people will be very inspired by the design and we have a special treat for everyone that visits." Hi Form will be at Equitana from Thursday November 18 through to Sunday November 21. See them at stand 247 in the Horse Health Pavillion.
