At American Crystal Sugar Company, we use every part of the sugarbeet. From animal feed to soil health solutions, our agri-products ensure nothing goes to waste. By transforming byproducts into valuable resources, our solutions support agriculture, industry, and sustainability.
VersaLime is a high-calcium byproduct of sugarbeet processing, used to improve soil health, balance pH, and enhance nutrient availability for better crop yields.
VersalimeSugarbeet pulp is the fibrous byproduct left after sugar extraction, commonly used in livestock feed, while tailings consist of beet remnants and soil, often repurposed for animal feed or soil conditioning.
Pulp & TailingsBeyond pulp and VersaLime, we produce other high-value byproducts through Midwest Agri-Commodities. Our beet molasses, raffinate, and other sugarbeet-derived materials are used in pet food, dairy feed, baker’s yeast, and livestock nutrition. These byproducts serve a range of industries, maximizing the value of every harvest.
After sugar extraction, the fibrous portion of the sugarbeet is pressed, dried to about 9% moisture, and formed into 5/16-inch pellets. These highly digestible beet pulp pellets provide a valuable, non-starch energy source for livestock feed.
A high-quality livestock feed, sugarbeet pulp shreds are the fibrous portion of the beet left after sugar extraction. Pressed and dried to 9% moisture, they are highly digestible, palatable, and less dusty than hay. Available in 40 lb. bags in plain or molasses-added forms.
A byproduct of sugar extraction, beet molasses is a nutrient-rich liquid that provides an excellent energy source for livestock and cattle. It’s also a key ingredient in the fermentation industry.
Raffinate is desugared beet molasses, a unique byproduct of the sugarbeet industry. It consists of the residual liquid left after sugar is extracted from beet molasses. Packed with energy and protein, raffinate serves as an excellent feed supplement for livestock.
