Do we need to 'fence off' barbed wire?

[Jackov Altraids]

"Officers also discovered that general farm welfare fell short of expected standards during their visit in January as a number of animals did not have a dry lying area, had access to sharp objects, such as a rusty gate and barbed wire, contained within a sheep field which posed a risk to their health."

I know no more about this case on the Trading standards website, but does that mean we shouldn't have barbed wire?
