Fodder Beet
Fodder beet is potentially the best buffer crop available, producing significant yields of highly digestible dry matter for winter grazing or lifting and yard feeding. Key Fodder Beet Points:
- High sugar levels need long fibre supplementation for the best results,
- Soil contamination can cause significant digestive upsets in lactating cows,
- Beet tops can cause tainting of milk and should be wilted before feeding if possible.
