FORAGE

This article appears in Volume V10, Page 628 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FLA-FRA
FORAGE ,
food
  for
cattle
  or horses, chiefly the provender collected for the
food
  of the horses of an army. In early usage the word was confined to the dried forage as opposed to grass. From this word comes " foray," an expedition in
search
  of " forage," and hence a pillaging expedition, a-
raid
 . The word " forage," directly derived from the Fr. fourrage, comes from a common
Teutonic
  origin, and appears in "
fodder
 ," food for
cattle
 . The ultimate Indo-
European
 
root
 , pat, cf. Gt. iraracreat, Lat. pascere, to feed, gives " food," feed," " foster "; and appears also in such Latin derivatives as " pastor," " pasture."
