Sugar beet feed is more cost-effective than the other main sources of digestible fibre sometimes fed to cattle – it has a higher energy content than soya hulls, extra protein compared to citrus pulp and is more palatable than either. Sugar beet feed is also more effective in buffering the rumen against acidosis.
It is palatable forage with relatively consistent quality and higher yields and energy content than most other forages. Silage is the end product of fermenting a high moisture crop (40% – 80% water) and storing the product is called ensiling.
contains the necessary minerals, vitamin A as well as the complete range of trace minerals; is balanced for protein and energy; contains no urea or medicaments; is molasses based, palatable with a good consumption; can be fed on a hard surface – no troughs needed.
Whole cottonseed is an excellent feed for dairy cattle due to its high level of fiber, protein and energy (fat) in a compact package. Whole cottonseed can also be used to stretch limited forage supply. Dairymen should capitalize on this situation as much as possible.
