What happens here
The farmer walks the perimeter of the temporary electric fence he set up earlier, inspecting for any weaknesses or areas where the poly wire might be too low or tangled in tall grass. He emphasizes the importance of a properly secured fence to prevent cattle from escaping. He points out a groundhog trail that could compromise the fence and plans to set a trap. He also demonstrates using a makeshift fence tester to ensure the poly wire is properly electrified.
Goal: Ensure the temporary electric fence is secure and functional
