A multipurpose tool that hammers, staples, cuts and splices fencing wire. C. J. and his
students constantly move the farm’s fencing to rotationally graze sheep and cattle.
When the land has a chance to rest, heartier, more diverse forage has a chance to
grow, there’s less compaction, less run-off, increased drought resistance and better
nutrition for the animals.
