Beet pulp is a by-product of the sugar beet industry and is made from the fibrous material left over after the sugar has been extracted. It is a highly digestible source of fibre and can be an important part of a horse's diet. Beet pulp can be purchased in dry form or pre-soaked, and is commonly fed to horses as part of their daily diet.
Nutritional Benefits of Beet Pulp:
