SM helps to bind the particles together. The aim of the research was to investigate the influence of SM on the specific energy consumption (SPE) of the pellet press during the production of dairy cow feed pellets, and the influence on the pellet durability index and pellet hardness. By adding SM to the mixture, the SPE of the pellet press had a statistically significant reduction and the pellet durability index did not statistically signifantly changed, but there was a decrease in the pellet hardness.otheropenAccesssoy molassespelletingdairy cowspecific energy consumptionphysical quality of pelletsEnergy consumption reduction during pelleting process of dairy cow feed with the addition of soy molassesOther
