Optional gate additions further enhance versatility, making them a top choice for ranchers seeking a durable, efficient corral solution.

Gallagher Virtual Fencing System

The eShepherd virtual fencing system is a GPS-enabled, solar-powered livestock management tool designed to replace traditional physical fences. The system uses a neckband worn by cattle that delivers audio cues and, if necessary, mild electrical pulses to guide animal movement within virtual boundaries. Farmers can establish, adjust or remove these boundaries remotely via a digital interface, providing flexibility for rotational grazing and land conservation.

By eliminating the need for fixed fencing, the eShepherd system allows for more efficient pasture utilization and reduces labor and maintenance costs associated with traditional fencing. It continuously monitors cattle movement, sending real-time data to farmers to improve herd management and ensure animals remain within grazing zones. This approach supports precision grazing strategies, reducing overgrazing and optimizing pasture regeneration.

The technology adapts to various terrains and farm layouts, making it suitable for both large- and small-scale operations. With real-time monitoring, farmers can track animal behavior and health, addressing issues before they become serious. Virtual fencing also minimizes the impact on wildlife and landscapes by reducing the need for permanent structures, offering an alternative for landowners seeking to balance agricultural productivity with environmental sustainability.
