This is going to change farming forever. Previously Labor intensive rotational grazing will be much more attainable.

[@MarkyPaine]

Very interesting! It’s revolutionary

[@pin-d670]

Amazing

[@Jay-R267]

Awsome stuff. Where can we buy and how much is it?

[@nathanhale7444]

I'm glad they're gonna be testing it on sheep and probably goats since if you want everything wiped out and replaced with fertilizer then those are the critters to do it. I'd like to have some goats for several reasons and a system like this would be perfect. I wonder if it has a feature that would detect odd behavior or give an alert if a goat is either taken outside the area either by predators or a poacher or if a collar is removed?

Does this system work with horses?

[@phillipgreen8958]

Do they have this for goats?

[@sharniwilson1953]

Nofence does them overseas, hoping they will make them available in NZ soon

[@svenneoo3446]

In Norway they use it

That would not work here in South Texas in all this brush
