Dried Citrus Pulp - Feed Ingredient
Dried Citrus Pulp is a byproduct of the citrus juice industry, primarily derived from oranges, lemons, and grapefruits. It consists of the peel, pulp, and seeds remaining after juice extraction. The pulp is typically dried and ground into a coarse meal suitable for use in animal feeds.
In equine nutrition, dried citrus pulp is used as a source of digestible fiber and energy. It contains high levels of pectin and other soluble fibers, along with moderate amounts of sugars and low starch content. These characteristics make it useful for supporting hindgut fermentation and providing non-starch energy, particularly in diets formulated for horses sensitive to high-grain rations.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Dried Citrus Pulp as an ingredient.
