Modern calf rearing for top performing calves Technology in calf feeding supports you and your team to achieve your rearing goals. Whether calf feeders, MilkTaxi, modern animal weighing scales or calf barns with a healthy outdoor climate: you’ll find the right product for you at Holm & Laue. Our motto always is: passion for calves. Automatic feeder CalfExpert: The CalfExpert allows you to work more flexibly and provide your calves with a steady supply of milk at all times. It allows you to promote the welfare of your calves in animal-friendly group housing. At the same time, it gives you valuable information thanks to modern data management. This means optimum overview and control for you, whenever you need it and wherever it suits you. This is what modern calf feeding is all about. MilkTaxi: Mobile calf feeding not only goes easy on your back but also saves valuable time when feeding calves. Convenient bucket feeding: the mobile milk tank enables individual calf feeding through pen recognition, flexible feeding curves, dry matter calculation and much more. It has revolutionised bucket feeding for calves. Whether individually in calf igloos or in groups in the calf barn, the MilkTaxi feeds your calves wherever they are. They can reliably mix milk replacer powder and gently heat or pasteurise whole milk. WeightControl: By recording calf weights, you create a database for important management decisions such as selection and feeding strategies. WeightControl are electronic weighing scales for calves that not only determine the weight of the animals, but also store other important data. They are available as platform scales, mobile individual scales and group scales for front loader transport. In addition, an RFID reader automatically recognises the calf’s ear tags, and you can enter further information at the operating terminal. With WeightControl, you no longer leave anything to chance and always have an eye on how your calves are developing. You can now make important decisions about feeding strategies or animal selection based on facts, not just on gut instinct. The different WeightControl models offer every farm the right solution for determining animal weights and documenting the key data. This allows you and your team to manage at the cutting edge. Calf Husbandry: As calf feeding is closely linked to calf husbandry, many farmers opt for innovative outdoor climate housing with large-capacity igloos, in individual hutches or in small groups of 2 to 3 calves. The health of the calf is always at the focus, regardless of the type of husbandry. And calves always have the freedom to choose: maximum protection in the igloo or space to play in the spacious run? The mobile canopies of the Holm & Laue verandas protect against direct sunlight and ensure that the calves, bedding and feed remain dry. This means maximum flexibility with optimum animal welfare.

Founded in 1995 by the VanBuuren family, Agri-Plastics was built on three generations of dairy experience. What began as a quest to improve calf hutches has grown into a legacy of innovation, with calf housing solutions that have helped shape industry standards.

These third-generation dairymen know first-hand the difficulties experienced on a dairy farm. They began experimenting with hutch designs to provide healthier, more comfortable environments for calves. Over the years, Agri-Plastics has listened and learned from many other producers, and they have used that knowledge to create game-changing innovations that have since become industry standards.

We know raising calves isn’t easy. It takes the right environment, tools, and design to give them the best start. As 4th-generation dairymen, we build hutches the way we’d want them on our own farms: thicker, heavier, and ready to handle the toughest weather. All vents come standard with every hutch, and assembly is quick and straightforward so you can focus on your calves. We also offer indoor pens that are lightweight yet durable, with built-in feeding features and excellent ventilation. They are easy to assemble, simple to clean, and designed to make daily chores more efficient. The best ideas come from the people who use our products every day. That’s why we listen to producers and turn real-world feedback into designs that work harder and last longer. From outdoor hutches to indoor pens, Agri-Plastics delivers practical, long-lasting solutions to help calves – and the people raising them.
