Driftless SW Wisconsin | What's the life of that perimeter fence? Maybe amortize it over 5 years in fact a good high tensile fence will last a lot longer. Make the middle wire hot and you have places to tap a single hot wire for interior dividers.
Even at $2/ft a mile is a bit over $10k or $2/k/yr over 5 years. Less than one calf (of your 20) per year for 5 years.
A mile of fence will enclose 40 acres which in Iowa will provide for more than 20 cows, maybe 20 pairs, when rotationally grazed.
