U.S. Agricultural Fencing Market Report Highlights

• The metal segment was valued at USD 1.20 billion in 2022 and the market segment is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% over the forecast period. This is attributed towards the chain link which is a type of metal fence that is highly popular in agricultural applications because of its affordable prices. This type of fence is also available in PVC coatings and is resistant to rust. The growth of the metal agricultural fencing segment can be attributed to a growing interest in chain link, ornamental, and barbed wire fencing to mark boundaries and secure the perimeter of the farm
• Wood is one of the oldest materials used to manufacture agricultural fences. Hardwood, cedar, mahogany, and pine are some of the prominent wood choices to manufacture fencing. Wood fencing is light-weighted and strong which makes it ideal for animal fencing and is largely used to make agricultural fencing for horses and pigs along with other larger farm animals. Additionally, it is sturdier and more aesthetically appealing compared to other materials
• The barbed wire segment was estimated at a revenue share of USD 857.5 million in 2022 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% over the coming years. Barbed wires are fencing wires mainly manufactured from steel with pointy and sharp edges at regular intervals along the length of the fence. These are one of the oldest forms of fence used in the agricultural sector.
• The stable mesh fence segment includes wood and metal agricultural fences which are used to contain horses. This fence category involves rail/plank fences, high tensile polymer fences, rubber fences and mesh wire fences. These are different from cattle fences as they need to be higher in size as horses can jump from smaller fences and not properly contained
• Key players are engaged in the adoption of strategic initiatives such as research and development and vertical integration to gain a competitive edge. The market in the U.S. exhibits huge growth potential in terms of application development, quality, and product innovation
