yes... we electric fence our corn as it starts to fill out. otherwise we would get no corn. the varmints will wipe out a field the night before it is ready to pick. ask me how I know that!?!?!?!?!??!!@#$%^&*()_. when I spend 25.00 a pound on corn I expect to make a nit of money on it. I am not doing it to break even. I have no use for that.
