Temporary and permanent electric fencing is a powerful tool for managing grazing.  In 2020, working with Dr. Teutsch from the Department of Plant and Soil Science and Jeremy McGill from Gallagher Fencing, we developed a curriculum entitled “Electric Fencing for Serious Graziers”.  This educational program is a combination of classroom and hands on exercises designed to provided participants with the tools needed to assist livestock producers with electric fencing.  After a delay due to COVID-19, this program was implemented as an in-service in the spring of 2021 and was offered to producers for the second time in spring 2023.  This year 22 folks participated in the workshop. In a post workshop survey, 100% of the participants agreed or strongly agreed that because of this workshop, they felt better equipped to install and trouble shoot electric fencing. 100% of the participants also agreed or strongly agreed that one or more of the practices learned would improve electric fencing on their farm.
