Portable
Fencing
Improve Your Grazing Management with Portable
Electric Fence Products: Livestrand, Flexinet and Hot Tape
Improve Stocking Rates and Forage Strength
You can drastically increase your yields, enhance soil conditions and
improve livestock production by using rotational grazing and installing
electric fence. A ranch in Umatilla, Florida discovered the
powerful yet practical tool of rotational grazing. The ranch increased
their stocking rate from 2.5 cows per acre to 3.5 cows per acre by
constructing long, rectangular grazing strips with portable electric
fence. With rotational grazing, both livestock and forage benefit. Your
cattle are continuously grazing on a fresh supply of nutritionally-rich
forage and the pasture has a chance to recover.
What portable electric fence will do for you:
- Increase Yields
- Enhance Soil Conditions
- Improve Livestock Production
- Produce Maximum Growth Rates
- Improve Pasture & Animal Health
- Utilize Pastures Efficiently
