MPI said the horse would have suffered "significant distress".
A Hamilton woman has been disqualified from owning horses for a year after she let a horse of hers starve to death.
Alicia Victoria Keppel, 53, was also sentenced to 100 hours' community work for the incident and ordered to pay vet fees of $498 in relation to the incident.
Keppel was sentenced in the Hamilton District Court on one animal welfare charge after the case was brought to court by the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI).
