|a3= Silage is a fermented crop with a low dry matter content.  It is cut at a relatively early stage of development and stored under anaerobic conditions.  Haylage is similar to silage but is often cut at a more mature stage.  It typically has a higher pH and DM than silage and can often be of more variable quality.  With horses haylage is typically preferred (by owners) to silage.

|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.
