This year there are a lot of distinctive wrapped bales of pressed sugar beet pulp at the factory

What are they destined for? AD?

 

[Matt L]

Yeah, destined for the AD plant.
More reliable way of storage than having it in a clamp, if you could even clamp the stuff effectively.

 

[Matt L]

Think that photo only shows about a third of the area covered in bales of it now.

 

[Badshot]

That's a hell of a lot of pulp that no longer goes for animal feed.

 

[marcot]

Is that their own AD plant opposite Mole Valley?

 

[Matt L]

Yes, that's the one.

Must of had a try with the green and black wrap and then got a hell of a deal on the white!!

A skilled team could have used the odd black one to write something on the top layer. Just sayin'.

 

[Laggard]

It's unlike British sugar to miss a trick but they could of done a cool "Silver Spoon" advert with an enormous sugar lump

@Jfp we went by all this lot the other day

 

[Jfp]

Yeh we did! There's even more stacked to the left of the photo I think!
