Silage clamp at Kaasboerderij De Gelder improves ration quality
Kaasboerderij De Gelder in Tijnje chose a new silage clamp with a covering system from Agridek. The result? Less manual labour, better preservation, and a more stable ration for their 350 dairy cows.
A sustainable investment in feed quality and ease of work
For Hans Peter Vogel of Kaasboerderij De Gelder, feed quality directly impacts the quality of their cheese. That’s why the farm invested in a large silage clamp from Bosch Beton, equipped with a covering system from Agridek.
The benefits are clear: less manual work, no need for a contractor to cover with soil, and improved silage preservation. Because the clamp is used as a “lasagne” silage pit, the ration comes from one consistent layer—resulting in less variation and less heating/spoilage.
With the business continuing to grow and the demand for consistent milk for their own cheese production rising, this is an investment they’ll benefit from for years to come.
