Import Tips
• Verify moisture content is below 14% to qualify as 'dried' beet-pulp and avoid reclassification as wet pulp
• Obtain certificate of analysis confirming it's a residue from sugar beet processing, not mixed with other feeds
• Check for pesticide residues common in agricultural byproducts to comply with FDA import requirements for animal feed
