1 lut 2017 · Feeding of industrial by-products such as sugar beet pulp (Bp) is an economically viable option in dairy production, but high inclusion rates might impair feed intake and performance of the cows.
Beet pulp can be used effectively as a supplement for gestating or lactating cows, as an ingredient in backgrounding diets or as a replacement for roughage in finishing diets. Beet pulp is relatively low in crude protein (8%), but relatively high in TDN (72%).
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.
22 sie 2022 · Sugar beet used for cattle feeding is often known as ‘feed beets’ to distinguish it from fodder beet (Evans and Messerschmidt 2017). Quality of any crop resides in the nutrients it holds. The ratio of protein, lipid and carbohydrate determines the nutritional status of the crop.
1 mar 2017 · Information regarding the feeding of sugar beets is provided and the use of sugar beets as a partial replacement for grain is proposed. Dairy cows are customarily given grains and highly digestible byproduct ingredients as additions to forage to support milk production.
24 sty 2013 · Beet pulp can be used effectively as a supplement for gestating or lactating cows, as an ingredient in backgrounding diets or as a replacement for roughage in finishing diets. Beet pulp is relatively low in crude protein (8 percent) but relatively high in TDN (72 percent).
1 lip 2018 · Molassed sugar beet pulp (Bp) is a human inedible by-product of the sugar industry being a suitable dietary energy alternative to grains particularly in terms of increasing the net food production efficiency of high-producing dairy cattle.
