We vetted the options, put collars in the hands of producers on our own customer base, and Nofence is what held up in the field. Set virtual boundaries in the free Nofence app and the collar guides each animal with an escalating audio warning before any mild electric pulse — so your flock learns the line and stays put. Nofence reports a \u003cstrong\u003e99.7% containment rate\u003c\/strong\u003e across its fleet, from the most field-tested virtual fence on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoundaries and exclusion zones from your phone\u003c\/strong\u003e — draw, move and resize pastures in seconds as conditions change, and fence stock \u003cem\u003eout\u003c\/em\u003e of creek bottoms, food plots, young timber and sensitive ground.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAudio first, then pulse\u003c\/strong\u003e — the collar sounds a warning as an animal approaches the line and only pulses if it keeps going.

Powerflex producers have used the SG2.5 for targeted brush and weed control on terrain that would never pencil out with wire — creek bottoms, rocky ridges, leased parcels with no infrastructure. It has also become the standard tool for contract grazing on solar sites and public ground — multiple sites, one app, no infrastructure left behind when the job is done. We recommended Nofence because we watched it work, on real operations, with real animals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat comes with it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach collar includes the rechargeable battery and wired charger. The first 12 months of Nofence subscription are included with purchase; a per-collar subscription continues monthly or annually after that and is managed directly through Nofence. One collar per animal with  5 collar minimum. Nofence also includes full app access, a U.S.-based support team, a 5-year collar warranty and a money-back guarantee if the system is not right for your operation — those terms are administered by Nofence, not by Powerflex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrants, cost-share and financing can apply to virtual fencing depending on your state, herd size and operation.
