It's pretty safe to say that the evolution of electric fencing has been a game changer when it comes to giving farmers and ranchers cost-effective, flexible solutions for rotational grazing, riparian protection, and keeping wildlife out of bale yards.
While putting up an electric fence sounds like a straightforward process, there are a lot of decisions to be made and techniques to perfect in order to obtain the ideal fence.
In this episode of Ruminating with RealAg three ranchers from different areas of the country, join host Amber Bell to dig into the ins and outs of electric fencing. Donovan Kitt of The Homestead, Arron Nerbas of Nerbas Bros. Angus and Mike Swidersky of Riverview Ranch Meat Co. all run very different operations. From breeding cattle to fencing in small animals, these ranchers have experimented with many different options when it comes to fencers, posts, grounding options, winter grazing and more.
