Barbed Wire Fence
Barbed wire fencing has been the backbone of Texas ranching for over a century. Consisting of T-posts or wooden posts with multiple strands of barbed wire, it's the most cost-effective way to fence large acreage. Standard installations run 4 to 5 strands, with corner and gate assemblies braced for decades of use. It's not pretty — it's functional, and that's the point.
