Game Management / Sheep
More than 25 years ago, Tornado’s specialists, in conjunction with The Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust, developed the ‘Pheasant-Friendly’ fence. Gamekeepers had previously solved the problem of allowing game birds to pass through a stock fence by turning it upside down. This seriously compromised the effectiveness of the fence for its primary purpose of containing stock. The solution is a stock fence, with fewer line wires that allows game birds to pass freely, while securely enclosing sheep.
Tornado Torus Stock Fence is manufactured with high tensile wire which strains tighter than mild steel and so requires fewer intermediate posts, making it quicker to erect. The spring like properties of a high tensile wire help the netting stay tight, keeping maintenance to a minimum.
