Import Tips
• Ensure bagasse is de-lignified and pelletized post-sugar extraction to confirm 'waste of sugar manufacture' status
• Provide origin certification distinguishing cane bagasse from beet pulp to avoid misclassification
• Watch for mold growth in humid shipments; use ventilated containers to prevent FDA feed rejection
