Citrus Pellets
Similar in digestible fibre levels, energy and fermenting sugar to sugar beet pulp, but slightly lower in protein. The fibre has a buffering capacity in the rumen. Citrus pulp can contain oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruit, tangerines etc. Orange citrus is recognised as the best as it is more palatable, has a better ph and contains more suitable acids which, in turn, minimise rumen upsets.Ideal for all ruminants and the pleasant aroma encourages intake.
