|a3= Sugarbeet pulp is the residue following sugar extraction from sugarbeet root.  It has a high dry matter and digestible fibre content, but a relatively low protein and phosphorus concentration.  It is available in pellets or shreds, molassed or unmolassed.  Can also be ensiled with distillers/brewers grains (draff) to form Grainbeet.

|a3= Molasses is the residue following sugar extraction from sugarbeet root (also get molasses from sugarcane).  It involves crystallisation and separation of sugar from water extract.  Molasses is a thick, black liquid that is very low in protein concentration but very high in soluble sugars.  It is often added to sugarbeet pulp, proprietary feeds, mineral licks, and TMR rations.
