It has absolutely no preservatives or chemicals so can't cause environmental damage. 2 Insultimber is a renewable resource from a commercial forest. It is not from the rainforest like copies. 3 Insultimber posts are spaced about 80 ft. apart, with smaller Insultimber droppers between. This makes the fence inexpensive, fast to install and easy to maintain. 4 Insultimber has been on the Canadian market since 1977. It has proven itself in snow country.

About 2500 feet of plastic water pipe serves the paddocks and a water trough is hauled from one paddock to the next by John's ATV. No space is wasted for lanes to take the cattle to the water and the cattle don't have to walk so far for water so don't walk off their gains. The cattle are controlled by inexpensive electric fencing that is all controlled from an energizer at the driving shed. Problems can be located through a warning system at the driving shed. John can string a line to divide a paddock in half in a matter of minutes. The cattle obviously like the system. As John bounces over the fields on his ATV to put up a new fence they come running, anticipating being let into a new paddock. In the field they've been in for a day they've neatly clipped the pasture down to a six-inch height. John says they often roll over in delight when they get into a lush new pasture.
