“A pound is a pound, right? How can a pound of pellets
end up yielding more than a pound of shreds? Add a half-gallon of
water to each, soak overnight and you still have a pound of beet pulp and
a half-gallon of water.

Yes 1 lb of any type of pulp whether shred
or pellets combined with ½ gallon of water will yield the same amount however
what is being said is the pellets are more concentrated hence you can add more
water to the pound of pellets and they will expand more than shred will. Basically
its not about weight it’s about their capacity to expand more than the
shred.
