Improved Managed Intensive Grazing

By automating the movement of the fence break-wire in a managed intensive grazing system, livestock will improve grazing efficiency and reduce the amount of damage to pasture. The break - wire movement will be at frequent intervals over shorter distances depending on number of livestock and dry-matter density in the pasture. This system may also allow for increasing animal stocking density.
