More return from autumn silage — with less labour
Why Dairy Farm Van der Schaar chose a large silo and lasagna pit
After ten years of working with lasagna pits, Dairy Farm Van der Schaar knew exactly how many advantages this method of ensiling offers. Their autumn silage, in particular, had been difficult to make profitable with their previous setup. That’s why they opted for a larger silo combined with a lasagna pit — saving them a great deal of labour.
The collaboration with Agridek was smooth and reassuring, thanks to their experience with silos of this size. Since then, multiple cuts have been ensiled, and so far, the feed quality has been excellent.
What our customers say
More milk from our own forage, without the hard work
“Our old silos were worn out, and covering them always took a lot of effort. With the new bunker silo and the Agridek system, that tough job is a thing of the past — we finally have the labour-saving solution we were looking for.”
Consistent quality for 1,200 dairy goats with smart forage storage
With 2,500 silage bales in our organic system, we needed a new storage solution. The lasagna pit saves both space and money — and ensures a consistent feed supply. The design was well thought out, which gave us confidence from the start.
Effortless ensiling — in both small and large quantities
For our medium-sized farm, this system is ideal. We feed the same ration all winter and need to plan less labour. Covering is quick and hassle-free, which brings a great sense of calm and saves us a lot of time.
Working faster with fewer people thanks to a lasagna pit
We’ve been using the lasagna pit for ten years now, and the system fits perfectly with the way we farm. One person can handle the covering with ease — no tight planning needed. This keeps the quality consistent and lets us ensile small quantities whenever it suits us.
Easy covering of a wide silo for 500 cows
Covering the silos used to be hard work. Now, it’s effortless — and faster than we expected. The system is robust, easy to operate, and fits perfectly with our large feed storage. It’s truly an investment that pays off every single day.
