Summary

A cubed molassed sugar-beet product with added urea, dicalcium phosphate, trace elements and vitamins was prepared containing 17% crude protein and up to 0·53% P. The product was evaluated in 3 changeover trials with lactating cows and the treatments involved comparisons with a low protein (10%) concentrate and one supplemented with groundnut plus cottonseed meals. When the product was included at 35–62% in milk production diets the mean daily yield of about 15 kg was about 0·5kg less than when full supplementation was as vegetable protein. This was considered more likely to be associated with inefficient utilization of urea rather than because of an energy difference between molassed sugar-beet pulp and barley.
