Kärki-Agri has been a trusted name in Finnish dairy farming for over 25 years. Founded in 1996, they started by bringing high quality dairy farming supplies straight to farms. They began with teat dips and treatments, then grew their range to include things like silage improvers, special netting, and even making minerals for specific farms. In the last three years, Kärki-Agri has been a successful 50/50 partnership between Alltech (USA) and DLG (Denmark).
Why Silostop?
Kärki-Agri saw the value of Silostop Agri products early on. Launched in 2012, Silostop offered a brand new and clever solution for Finnish farmers who were used to just normal bunker sheets. Kärki-Agri's focus on keeping things modern in silage making made Silostop a perfect fit for their business.
What They Sell and What Makes Them Different
Kärki-Agri mostly sells Silostop Max and Silostop wall film. They offered thinner sheets at first, but after listening to their customers, Silostop Max has become the standard choice because it's tougher and lasts longer.
What really sets Kärki-Agri apart is their willingness to be adaptable and helpful. They understand the idea of being at the "forefront" – just like the word "Kärki" means. Kärki-Agri aims to be the key player in helping Finnish farmers with their silage needs.
The Challenges and How They Help
Kärki-Agri knows the tough times their customers face. Farmers are under pressure from lower prices, new laws about the environment, and unpredictable weather. The aim is to help them succeed by making silage efficiently. Silostop Agri products play a vital role in this by:
- Better Silage: Silostop helps farmers make better silage with less waste, which means healthier animals and more profit for the farm.
- Being Kind to the Environment: By using less plastic and making silage making more efficient, Silostop helps create a more sustainable farming industry.
- Coping with the Weather: Silostop helps farmers deal with the effects of unpredictable weather on their crops by making sure the silage ferments properly.
Happy Customers
Kärki-Agri has seen many happy customers who've benefited from Silostop. Being able to use every bit of silage with hardly any waste means feeding is easier and the animals are healthier – a win-win for every farmer.
Why Kärki-Agri Likes Silostop Agri
More than just the products, Kärki-Agri likes the Silostop Agri brand for its clear, strong, and innovative message. They admire the challenge Silostop took on by introducing oxygen barrier sheets, a solution that needs farmers to understand the whole silage making process better. Kärki-Agri shares this focus on teaching farmers, so they can make informed choices to be successful in the long run.
