I've got 2 hectares (8 acres) of land in wet/dry tropics of western Africa with a "total circumferential distance" (is that the right term?) of about 800 metres (+/- 2600 feet) which I want to fence, possibly leaving parts of it open to free roaming animals, yet still marking it in some ways so other people won't impose on my land. The best (or not?) would be a brick fence running the whole 800 metres, but I'm afraid that will be too costly. Perhaps a living fence would work... Been watching some vids this evening of cassava fences made in the tropics which look great, but I doubt I'll be able to find a gazillion cassava sticks in order to make a fence.
Any ideas of living fences in the tropics?
