Sugar Beet Feeds

Sugar beet is a natural feed which is a nutritional cross between a concentrate and a forage. It provides a highly digestible source of fibre in a slow release form which is more suited to the horse and pony's natural way of feeding, and helps to maintain a healthy gut.

A highly palatable feed, sugar beet can encourage fussy feeders to eat, as well as acting as a succulent and helping with rehydration, if it is fed very wet.
