[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 9093"] Beet pulp is a highly digestible fiber source with some soluble sugars left in it meaning that if you compare it to something like corn it will have between 80 and 100 % of the feeding value of corn and is less likely to cause digestive upsets (i.e. acidosis). In a grain based diet you're looking at about 80% the value of corn but if you are feeding a forage based ration it is closer to 100% the value of corn. Likewise, it is extremly palatible and cattle will eat it readily. Depending on how expensive it is you could also use soy hulls instead of beet pulp-they have about the same feeding value.<br> <br> <br><hr size=4 width=75%><p> [/QUOTE]
