Description
Sugar beet pellets are a popular type of animal feed made from sugar beet pulp, a byproduct of the sugar extraction process. Sugar beets are harvested for their sugar content, and the leftover pulp is often dried and processed into pellets for use as animal feed. These pellets are especially useful for livestock, such as cattle, sheep, and horses, but they can also be used for other animals, including poultry.
Sugar beet pulp is a fibrous material left after sugar has been extracted from sugar beets. It contains high levels of fiber, sugars, and minerals, making it an excellent energy and roughage source for animals. When processed into pellets, the material becomes more compact and easier to handle, transport, and store.
