If you can find them, the hot-dipped galvanized t posts are forever. They are pricey but for barfed wire fencing, it helps the zinc on the wire last many times longer. I have miles of barbed wire fences with hot dipped t posts that are nearly 20 years old. Even the wires have not yet rusted.

Have you ever had to run electric fencing under a gate? If so how would you do it at your farm? I know that’s not ideal with electric fences but I can’t run above on a couple gates. How could I do that without losing much electricity on my fence. I’ve never heard you talk about that part in your fencing videos. Maybe in a future video? Thanks in advance
@gregjudyregenerativerancher Жыл бұрын
Use 160 psi 3/4” polyethylene pipe and bury it 12” under the gate. Push a piece of the black insulated wire through the pipe and use a crimp on each side of your gate to carry power under your gate. Never bury the black insulated wire by itself under a gate. They all eventually ground out your fence. I learned that lesson the hard way.

@gregjudyregenerativerancher Жыл бұрын
On rolling uneven ground, your post spacing is dictated by your bottom wire height staying at the core t distance from the ground. If you go up over a hump in the landscape with your fence, you need a post at the top of the hump. If your humps are closer than 20’ apart, your spacing between posts will be closer.

Thank you! Would you put a brace post at the bottom of a hollow? I have some pretty egregious dips. Say 20-30’ down 20’ across 20-30’ back up. This is a line fence so it has to be there. I have some 2” fiberglass posts I’ve thought about using at the bottoms.
@swamp-yankee Жыл бұрын
@@champherren I had one lift out of the ground in the bottom of a berm that directs water around the land owners yard. In that spot I had three posts close together to keep the fence regular. I am going to replace the one at the bottom with a longer one, so my fence doesn’t have upward pressure and run a short piece of soft wire for the bottom there. In all other places they have done well on our hard rolling ground. I wouldn’t worry about adding brace posts unless you’re turning corners.

I respect your opinion, just giving mine. I am not against non conductive. I use non-conductive rods for temporary fencing. I use them for deer protection of vegetables row crops. Three single lines for perimeter or a single line directly over each row. They are great, just wrap around the rod with a little tension and keep going. Electric fence is great for cross fencing and for rotational grazing paddocks. I just don't see the plastic t posts as a forever option for permanent fencing, not to mention the price. And what about rocky ground when driving them. A metal t post can be pounded through all but solid rock. If the price was competitive maybe they would be an option for me in soft soil with no rocks, but there are nearly always rocks. Either way, barbed wire fencing (mine are 6 strands at the road) will keep cattle in after a lightning strike has damaged the electric fence charger.
