We are expanding our herd and are on an old ranch with poor fences. We want to do a better job with rotational grazing.
The design we laid out has permanently fenced lanes for driving on and moving the herd. We have no experience with electric fences. But, we think they are what we need for the interior fences. Should we also use them to ring the perimeter- instead of replacing the existing 5 strand barb wire or keep patching like we have been. Who is a good supplier, what is a good brand, What are we talking price per 1/4 mile? The total acreage of land we are talking about fencing is 170 acres. It is 3/4 or better pasture. Thanks so much for your help!
