As a farmer you know how important it is to protect your crops and livestock from damage caused by wild animals, weather, and other external factors. Secure exclusion fencing is not only effective, it's a must to protect your livelihood.


Exclusion fencing is a physical barrier that is designed to keep animals, people, and other things out of a designated area. It has been used for centuries to protect agricultural land and livestock from predators and other intruders. Exclusion fencing is made from a variety of materials, including wood, metal, and even electric wires.


The primary benefit of exclusion fencing is that it helps to protect your crops and livestock from predators, theft, and other damages. Exclusion fencing also helps to keep livestock contained and allows you to create paddocks for grazing and other activities. In addition, exclusion fencing can serve as a visual deterrent to potential thieves and trespassers.


To choose the right exclusion fencing for your property, you'll need to consider the size and layout of your land, the budget, the type of animal or intruder you're trying to keep out. For example, if you're looking to keep out large animals like emus, kangaroos, deers and pigs, you may want to invest in a higher-gauge fabricated mesh fence, or even an electric fence. If you're looking to contain smaller animals that are known to burrow or dig you may need to consider adding an apron to the fabricated roll.


When it comes to installation, you may be able to do it yourself or hire a professional to do the job. If you choose to install the fence yourself, make sure to follow all safety protocols.


Secure exclusion fencing is an effective and sensible way to protect your crops and livestock from predators and other intruders. With the right type of fencing for your property and a little bit of time and money invested, you can ensure that your crops and livestock remain safe and secure.


Whether you're a professional contractor or a farmer considering doing it yourself, having the right equipment is equally as important. QuikFence have a range of equipment to suit contractors or farmers for exclusion fencing, and to know more call 1800 062 723 or visit quikfence.com.au.
