ABSTRACT:
An improved apparatus for controlling pasturage and irrigation of a field. A labyrinthine path for animals is defined in the pasture and a movable radially-extending arm carrying an electric fence causes the animals to traverse the labyrinthine path at a very slow rate, e.g. once every two weeks. The arm comprises structure for irrigating the pasture by a gentle drip feed method whereby efficiency in use of both water and land is obtained. The apparatus is disclosed in a very efficient arrangement.
