In many livestock farms that are engaged in the breeding of cattle, both meat and dairy directions fresh pulp is mixed with molasses, and then this mass is given to the animals. Beet pulp is a by product of the beet sugar production process, representing desaccharified beet chips (80-82% by weight of processed sugar beet with a dry matter content of about 6.5-7%). The main direction of using sugar beet pulp is the use of it in the feeding of cattle for meat and milk directions. Beet pulp remains one of the most valuable feed for feeding cattle. Pulp is a highly digestible source of carbon, its main components are pectin and hemicellulose. At present, the issue of the quality of beet pulp plays a crucial role in its use for feed purposes. The volume of its implementation in feed production depends on it.
