Steel, like all metal, conducts electricity. If you still want to mainain the barbed wire and use the same support poles then you need to insulate the electric fence from it. You can fit ceramic shackles on the support poles which will hold the live wires.


Effects of barbed wire on the frontier?

Before the invention of barbed wire, a rancher's cattle just went all over the land, and during roundup time, you had to go find them. Also, someone driving cattle could simply cut across a person's land in order to get to market. With the invention of barbed wire, roundups becanme easier, and "Line houses" were set up along the fences of some larger ranches, in order to make sure the cattle were in good health year round. The upside/downside (depending on who you ask) was that it kept cattle drivers from cutting across property, making them go aroound, thus lengthening their travel time.


What kind of fence is needed for cows?

Wooden fencing is the best kind, though it can be expensive! Electric fencing works, but they require lots of maintenance, and vinyl fences last the longest. If you're looking for cheap stuff, woven wire fencing is the best. Rope fences work as temporary fencing, though never for a permanent fence. AVOID BARBED WIRE, but if you must use it, replace all rusty wire, and constantly check it to make sure it is strung tight and not lying loose on the ground, where horse's can step on it.
