This call will bring Ranch Managers Guild members together for a candid, peer-to-peer discussion about the use of virtual fencing technologies in real-world ranch operations. Members will share firsthand experiences with different systems, what it actually takes to implement and operate them, and how the technology is affecting cattle behavior, labor, costs, and management flexibility. The goal is to move beyond marketing claims and focus on practical lessons learned from managers who are using or seriously evaluating virtual fencing. 

We’ll discuss: 

• Overall experiences using virtual fencing in day-to-day operations 

• Upfront and ongoing costs, including installation, labor, and maintenance 

• Unintended consequences, limitations, or surprising outcomes 

• Comparisons between different virtual fencing companies and platforms 

• How cattle have responded and adapted over time 

• The realities of operating the apps and managing herds digitally 

• How to identify cost-share programs and funding opportunities 

Participation is reserved for active members of the Ranch Managers Guild. Not signed up yet? You can sign up here today.
