Example of a training pasture
The training pasture is fully fenced in with a physical fence. The physical fence is shown as black fence
posts, while the Nofence boundary is illustrated by a red dotted line between blue corner posts.
The Nofence boundary cuts off a part of the existing pasture area. We recommend cutting off a part of
the pasture that the animals will seek out for grazing as they have to cross the boundary to learn how the
system works. There should be plenty of space outside the Nofence boundary (at least164 ft / 50
metres).
Pasture design
The most important aspect of the learning process is that the animals learn that they can turn the audio
warning off by turning and going back into the Nofence pasture. Therefore, it is important that the
boundaries are set in a manner that makes them logical to the animals. Create a simple pasture with
simple boundaries. Avoid creating sharp angles or narrow corridors, or placing the boundary in complex
terrain, on steep slopes or in areas with a lot of tall vegetation. A stable and logical boundary makes for
a more efficient learning process.
