Abstract: The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of ammoniated of sugar Beet Pulp (BP) by different levels of ammonia and water on in vitro gas production parameters. The samples were left treated with water (90 and 120% of BP) and ammonia 1-3% of BP. The gas production data were fitted using an exponential equation of P = b(1-e-ct) where b is the volume of gas produced, c is the fractional rate constant of gas production (/h), t is the incubation time (h) and P is the volume of gas produced at time t. The most cumulative gas production was for w90a1 in time 98 h incubation (68.5404 mL/200 mg of sample incubated). The chemical composition and parameters of OMD, ME SCFA and NEL were different among ammoniated sugar beet pulp used in this study.
