Pelleting

Pelleting is the process of forcing a ground, moist forage through a die and compressing it, then cutting at certain lengths. These can vary in length and diameter.

There are several advantages to pelleting a roughage, including:

  • easier to store and handle
  • less bulky
  • reduces dusts
  • can allow for automatic feeding
  • reduces selectivity by animals
