Most horses can be fed 25-50% of their ration as beet pulp. While some veterinarians suggest soaking beet pulp shreds in order to improve hydration, most say it is not necessary to soak beet pulp pellets prior to feeding.

If 2% of a typical horse's weight should be fed each day, a 1100 pound horse needs 22 pounds of feed per day. At least 25% of this -- 5.5 pounds -- can be beet pulp. Shreds can be fed all at once or split up between a morning or evening feeding. They can be fed alone or mixed with other feeds. Some nutritionists recommend soaking beet pulp pellets at least 30 minutes prior to feeding. Dried beet pulp will remain feedable for at least one year so long as they are kept dry.
As with any change in feed ration, it is best to change a horse's feed gradually. As such, we suggest substituting no more than 25% for the first two weeks in order to allow the horse's gut to adjust. After that, most horses can consume up to 50% of their overall diet as beet pulp.
