A living fence is a permanent hedge tight enough and tough enough to serve almost any of the functions of a manufactured fence, but it offers agricultural and biological services a manufactured fence cannot. For instance, it provides “edge habitat” that supports ecological diversity.
What is the difference between live fence and living fence?
Living fences are lines of trees or shrubs planted on farm boundaries or on the borders of home compounds, pastures, ffelds or animal enclosures. Living and live fences are the same thing -the two terms are used interchangeably. Their primary purpose is to control the movement of animals or people.
Why would someone want a living fence?
A living fence increases soil humus as its leaf litter and root hairs (which the plants shed to balance loss of top growth to pruning or browsing) break down. Living fences are windbreaks, which reduce soil drying, wind erosion, and stress on livestock or crop plants, thus increasing yields.
