Sirs,
I want your advice whether Solar Fencing is suitable for Goat Farming agriculture land where we grow fodder and the goats come out of stall for exercise and sometimes grazing. In Andhra Pradesh there is 25% percent subsidy if a farmer goes for Solar Fencing. Your valuable advice is solicited

Solar fencing is modern technique to restrict the cattles in their grazing areas.It protects cattles from predators and thefts.It gives sharp but safe shock to intruder.
But the main disadvantage of solar fencing is that it requires huge capital investment.Solar panel and installation charges are very high.Solar panels requires fossil fuel inputs for their production.This will further increase the capital cost.So beside using solar fencing use metal wire fencing and hire 1-2 labours on yearly payment basis to keep watch on goats while grazing.Also they will do other work of your farm in same payment.Dont look for subsidy,subsidy is on interest and not loan amount.Subsidy on loan amount is only under NABARD Scheme below 5lakh.
