Virtual Fence Field Day - Sep 2026

📅 15 September 2026 – 16 September 2026 | 📍 Chris Hudson’s Farm, 30466 Hwy O, Middletown, Missouri, 63359, United States
Join us for an on-farm look at virtual fence technology and regenerative grazing in practice. Kaitlyn Dozler-German, CRA Virtual Fence Program Manager, will open with a brief overview of what virtual fence is and how Chris Hudson has implemented it on his operation. Chris will then lead a tour of the farm, where folks can see what he’s been working on this year — no-till corn, cover crop plantings and the collars in action. Afterward, we’ll head back to Chris’s shop for supper and a Q&A to talk through what everyone saw and dig into virtual fence cost-share programs.
Ideal For: Cattle producers curious about virtual fence, graziers looking to tighten up rotational management, and anyone interested in cost-share opportunities for conservation-minded grazing
What to Expect:– Get an introduction to virtual fence technology and how it works on a working cattle operation– Walk Chris Hudson’s farm to see no-till corn, cover crop plantings and virtual fence collars in use– Enjoy supper in the shop, followed by an open Q&A on the tour and on virtual fence cost-share programs
