Question
Hi There,
I used to use Sugar beet in my Horses feed when i was in the UK. I now own my first Horse since moving to Australia & was wondering if it is available here as i have had no luck finding any in the Albury/Wodonga area (N.S.W.).
Regards, Marie

Answer
Hi Marie,

Sugar beeet is new to Australia but it's becoming fairly common. It's being heavily advertised in horse mags so it's popularity is spreading.  It's called Speedibeet and I believe this is a UK brand.

Perhaps your local feed store can order a few bags in for you?

Good luck
