Speedi-Beet is made from pure unmolassed sugar beet pulp which is a by-product of the sugar beet industry. Sugar beet is grown in Europe and North America as an alternative to sugar cane which is grown in tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. It is mainly grown as a source of table sugar for human consumption.
Speedi-Beet is fast, convenient and is the healthy option for thousands of horse owners who now use the product and rely on its benefits.
Its key benefits are:
DO NOT FEED DRY - Refer to mixing and preparation guide for more information. Unlike other sugar beet products, Speedi-Beet will absorb up to 5 times its own weight as water. The bulking capacity, however, is mediated by its patented production process and will improve the inherent digestion in the horse. It is therefore recommended that concentrate allowances should be reviewed after a few days to ensure the animal does not gain weight too fast.
Where Speedi-Beet is introduced care should be taken to offer in increasing amounts, initially, to achieve recommended levels. As Speedi-Beet is highly palatable beware of overfeeding.
Feeding Guide:
As a guide horses require ~2% of body weight as feed per day. At least 25% must be fed as forage, or high fibre alternatives. Speedi-Beet can be fed up to 30% of the daily feed, depending on the circumstances.
