Molassed Sugarbeet Shreds

A high digestible fibre and sugar energy, palatable feed supplied as shreds that afford physical structure to a ration.
Molassed Sugar Beet Shreds are a co-product from sugar production. Once the sugar has been diffused out from the beet, the fibrous residues are combined with molasses and dried as shreds.
