Farm Fence Questions, Answered

Livestock, acreage, bracing and Tennessee's partition fence law.

What fence is best for cattle?

Woven wire and board fence are the standard answers, with high-tensile on larger tracts. Cattle push and lean, so the fence has to resist steady pressure rather than just mark a line.

What fence is best for horses?

Board fence or a smooth wire system rather than barbed. Horses lean and push, and barbed causes injuries cattle generally avoid. Visibility matters too — horses need to see the fence, which is why board and coated high-tensile suit them.

Why does bracing matter more than the wire?

Because the wire is rarely what fails. Corner and gate bracing determines whether a farm fence holds. Every run pulls against its corners, and a weak corner takes the whole line out of alignment within a season. On a thousand feet of fence that is expensive to correct.

What does farm fence cost per foot?

Roughly $12 to $30 per linear foot installed depending on type, terrain and gates. An acre enclosed on four sides is about 835 feet if square, so broadly $10,000 to $25,000. Irregular parcels need more fence than square ones.

How deep do farm fence posts need to be?

Deeper than most people expect in East Tennessee clay, and corner and gate posts deeper still because everything pulls against them. Clay swells wet and shrinks dry, which is what works a shallow post loose. Why depth and drainage decide it.

Who is responsible for a fence between two farms?

A boundary fence is a partition fence under Tennessee Code 44-8-202, and adjoining owners generally share the cost of building and repairing it. Where one property is agricultural and the other is not, the non-agricultural owner may file a written disclaimer of responsibility. Full explanation.

What if neighbors cannot agree on repair costs?

Tennessee provides an out-of-court process. Either party may ask a judge of the court of general sessions to intervene, and the judge appoints three disinterested freeholders to examine the fence and determine what is owed.

Can a neighbor remove a shared fence?

Not unilaterally. Tennessee restricts removing a partition fence without mutual consent and generally requires substantial written notice. Removing or intentionally damaging another owner's fence can carry criminal penalties.

How do I handle a fence line through woods?

Clear the line first and establish the boundary before setting anything. Tennessee has no statute that draws your line — the deed and county plat govern, and a fence left in the wrong place long enough can affect where the legal line runs. On wooded tracts a survey usually costs less than moving fence.

Do I need to call 811 on farm ground?

Yes — post holes count as excavation under Tennessee law, and the locate takes about three business days. Critically, private lines are never marked: runs to barns, wells, pumps and septic fields are common on acreage and invisible to the locate. Point them out before the crew starts. Full 811 guide.
