Barbed Wire for Cattle vs Crops: Choosing Strands and Roll Size
·
1 min read
Cattle lines need more strands and stronger posts. Crop boundaries can use fewer strands. Match 610m, 480m or 240m rolls to the job in Kenya.
Livestock pushes the fence
Cattle and goats lean and rub. Use more strands, closer post spacing and 610m / 25kg rolls if the boundary is long — best cost per metre from Imara Wires.
Crops and fallow land
A lighter line (fewer strands) can mark a shamba. 480m or 240m rolls are useful for shorter sides and repairs.
Always galvanized G16
