Well, you need enough space so you can go out riding... I would say at least 100
I am not sure how much grass grows where you live, so I cannot tell you how much land you need. However, in most situations a horse can live on less than an acre if you can give him free-choice hay to make up for the grass he lacks. At least 2 acres is ideal, and 5 would be wonderful. More than that would be horsey heaven. Just make sure that the grass is never grazed right down to the ground, because the horse could end up getting sand colic from ingesting too much dirt/sand while trying to get the little bit of grass there is off the ground. If the grass gets that low, then you should get the horse more land or hay.

The law is about 1-2 acres per horse.
How many acres do you need to own a horse in Raisinville Township, Monroe Michigan
You don't have to have any 'acres'. You just have to be able to afford it.
The average horse needs about 1 acre of land...
You need one acre or less
you need l acre or a half an acre
I've heard you need atleast an acre and a half per horse.
It is recommended that you have two acres per horse, but more is optimal. With more land you can let your horses roam freely.
1 acre per horse at the least, but it depends on the size of the horse.
I would recommend getting two acres for a horse. It has been said that a horse needs at least an acre but two acres is great. If you are getting more than one horse: 1 horse - 1-2 acres 2 horses - 4-5 acres 3 horses - 7-8 acres and so on. Hope this helps!
3-9
It all depends on how many horses you have. You need one acre per horse for forage. So, say you have 6 horses, you need 6 acres.
