we have a cart track that runs through the farm, it's used mainly by walkers which aren't that frequent other than one neighbour who does have a lot of dogs which are always on a lead or so old they don't care.
It's mostly hedged but in places it's got sheep netting. The posts have all rotten and it's getting pretty dodjy with cows leaning over to talk to passers by. I would love to put new sheep netting there but it gets so expensive.
Can I just use single strand electric? It's only dairy cows plus the bulls in the spring. They all respect a well powered fence which this would then have to be. I'm looking at saving a killing just in posts having to only use 1/5th of them compared with netting let alone labour and netting etc.
