       When constructing a horse farm, you should carefully consider the type of fencing to install.

  Fences to Avoid             Certain  fences  do more  harm  than  good.  Case  in  point,  barbed wire  fences  can  easily 

entrap  horses,  causing  them  to  panic  and  attempt  to  violently  escape.  If  you  decide  to install  a mesh  fence, make  sure  it  has  small  openings.  Any  apertures  bigger  than  three inches are a recipe for disaster.
