The Effect of Neuspora sitophila Fungi on Chemical Composition, Digestibility and Degradability of Sugar Beet Pulp %K chemical composition %K Degradability %K digestibility %K Neurospora sitophila %K Sugar beet pulp %R %X Chemical composition, in vitro digestibility and in situ (dry matter and protein) degradability were measured to assess the nutritive value of Sugar Beet Pulp (SBP) treated with Neuspora sitophila fungi. The obtained data were compared using t test. Dry Matter (DM), Crude Protein (CP), Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF), Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF) and ash content for untreated SBP were 90, 9.2, 46.6, 30.0 and 5.6 % of DM, respectively, and they after processed by fungi, were respectively 78, 25.6, 27.2, 25.4 and 6.3% of the DM. Treated SBP contained being a lower content of DM, NDF and ADF, but higher CP (P %U https://ijas.ut.ac.ir/article_20927_94c985f37cf312ffadd01005d7718882.pdf
