Transportation costs must be added. Dry pulp can be purchased pelleted or not pelleted. Pelleting increases bulk density, and reduces transportation costs. Dry pulp can be stored in bins or piled under cover. Adequate bunk space is needed, and labor requirements may be greater than feeding a liquid feed, but pulp provides an option when a dry feed is desired.
Many options are possible for feeding wet pulp.
Many citrus processing plants do not have dehydrators, and sell wet pulp to plants that have dehydrators. Cattle producers located a similar distance that the selling plant trucks wet pulp to a dehydrator, may arrange for the selling plant to deliver wet pulp to the ranch. If cattle producers arrange for transportation of the wet pulp, most plants without dehydrators do not charge for the pulp. Percentage waste is greater when large piles are made, as compared to many small piles that will be consumed in a few days. In one instance, several cattle producers located near a plant without a dehydrator purchased a dump truck.
