Fences keep off wild animals and other intruders from outside the farm
They are used to separate crop fields from the pastures facilitating mixed farming
They are used to divide pasture into paddocks facilitating controlled grazing systems such as rotational grazing
Controls the movements of animals and people preventing the formation of unnecessary paths in the farm.
Helps to control the spread of pastures and diseases by keeping off wild and stray animals from the farm
Fences help to isolate sick animals from the rest of the herd to prevent disease spread.
They enable the farmer to control breeding by rearing different animals in different paddocks
They provide security to the homestead and farm animals.
