What happens here
Construct temporary electric fences to create small, manageable paddocks around the central watering locations. Use polywire (or polybraid) and step-in posts, which are easy to install and move. The video demonstrates setting up these fences, with four posts driven around each waterer. The polywire is then connected to a solar charger (not shown as present, but implied for connection). This electrification ensures cattle respect the temporary boundaries, allowing them to graze a small area intensely before being moved to the next paddock. This method enables precise control over grazing intensity and recovery time for the pastures.
Goal: Create temporary, movable paddocks for controlled, rotational grazing.
