Invisible fencing in wood pasture - A comparison of costs

Why invisible fencing?

Invisible fencing is an innovation that allows the control of cattle movement without needing physical barriers. In open areas, cattle can be fitted with a Geographical Positioning System (GPS) which will signal when a cow approaches a boundary.

Under trees in a wood pasture, due to the intermittent GPS signal, an alternative method is to bury an electric cable in the soil surface that emits a shortwave radio signal which is sensed by a transponder on a cattle collar. The transponder emits a noise as a cow approaches the boundary and, if she does not turn back, it provides an electric pulse similar to an electric fence. At Epping Forest, each collar also includes a GPS sensor which helps to locate the cattle.

Featured Farm of the day

Gunarsholt’s windbreaks in Iceland

The farm in Gunarsholt belongs to the governmental agency – Soil Conservation Service (SCS). In 1944, Icelandic government purchased the land and undertook efforts to restore the land to the sustainable production. After many years of intensive work, the farm is presently simply submerged in greenness.
