Sugar Beet - 20kg

Molassed Sugar Beet Feed is high in digestible fibre, which under bacterial digestion in the horses hind gut slowly releases energy, providing a good energy source, whilst keeping the digestive tract in good condition.

The combination of sugars and digestible fibre provides a slower release of energy than from cereal sources, ensuring a more constant energy supply to meet the horses requirement without the 'heating' effect sometimes associated with grain feeding.

Molassed Sugar Beet Feed is high in calcium, making it an ideal complement to oats and bran, helping to balance the diet.

Molassed Sugar Beet Feed is very palatable, its inherent high sugar content ensures that even shy feeders find this product irresistible.
