Specific Outcomes and Assessment Criteria:
| SPECIFIC OUTCOME 1 |
| Prepare an area for fencing. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
| Boundary beacons are placed in order to identify and mark the area to be fenced. |
Identify your beacons.
You will need a GPS because it is very accurate and a map to identify where it is. Set out the beacons then use a map and a GPS. Then mark the things on the map with the GPS coordinates.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
| The area is physically cleared or debushed in preparation for fencing. |
When you physically clear remember some things:
Remember fire breaks must be 7 m long.
Also a fence go straight, and if a tree or kopie is in the way go walk to the neighbors and decide witch on you will have in your farm and witch on on his farm, if there is only one e.g. kopie then go over the kopie to divide it between you and the neighbor. Fence checking.
If there is buches next to fence, cut off.
More physical and chemical than biolocical.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
| The area is levelled to facilitate the erection of a fence. |
Level next to the fence so that you and other people can walkor ride there. The soil must be leveled. There must be fence patrol. Put fence line without interruptions.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 4 |
| An outline is given of the prescribed specifications to be adhered to when preparing an area for fencing. |
Specifications need to fall within ecological management plan.
- Next to fence 1 m of clearness road
- The patrol road don't have to be straight
- Fire break - Inside of fire break
- Selective thinning - Guest experience much higher to see animals
Clearing - Method selection:
- Time scale
- Buget
- Labour fence
- Slope
- Soil type
- Type or fence
- Fore break width
| SPECIFIC OUTCOME 2 |
| Erect and dismantle a fence. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
| The prescribed fence is erected to a specified standard. |
FENCE type:
Electrical
Non - Electrical
Steel wire
Bonnoxi wire
Mesh
Diamond
Spacing:
Before doing anything you must plan how you will do it and how much meter it will between each other of a post. But it will depend on the specie you have and the wire you have and also the budget.
E.g. Conner post - You gravel it under the ground. E.g. Steel or wood and it need to be treated.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
| The fence is erected on a prescribed line. |
When you plan the fence you must also go to the neighbor and talk to see where exactly is the fence going to be put up. Because if you don't talk to the neighbor and put it up there will be problems.Talk to neighbor, when cleaned the way where the fence is going to be put up,and marked with beacons the support poles must be placed on the line.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
| Electrification is added to a fence according to indicated specifications. |
You must know what kind of specie you have because there id different ways to put it up.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 4 |
| A sacrificial or folding fence is constructed at a river crossing. |
2 basic fences.
The sacrificial fence: Where there is a river and the fence is going down intill the bottom. Must be checked and repaired.
The folding fence: Where there is a river but goes over the river and a flats hanging over and if its season it goes up and down if its not finished.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 5 |
| A fence is dismantled as directed by supervisor in line with organisational standards. |
Do it in a step wise manner.
Can't leaf a gap in a fence.
All materials need to be recycled or reuse.
Boundary fence and Internal fence.
First take out the droppers and decide how much fence you want e.g 1 m; 2 m and then cut your fence and roll it up nicely to use again.
| SPECIFIC OUTCOME 3 |
| Monitor the fence for effectiveness. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
| Regular patrols are conducted for the purpose of gathering information on the following aspects, the locations, the number of incidents and the particular species that are involved in fence breaching. |
When you do patrol:
3 Ways: 1) Walk ; 2) Ride ; 3) Fly
Check for:
Bent ; Broken strains; Rust; Animal or human - tracks; hairs.; Damage
The location:
Locate where it is on a map and the gps cordinat's.
Where; How may; Who
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
| A report is prepared to communicate findings on the effectiveness of the fence. |
What happened or what is busy happening. Also why you propose on making it better.
2 ways: 1) Written report 2) Verbal report
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
| An assessment is made of what is required to repair weaknesses in the fence. |
What do you need:
What are you gone cheak at- Do you have the right budget?
Do you have the right people for the job?
Do you have the right tools?
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 4 |
| A description is given of the problems that neighbouring communities experience as a result of animals breaching the fence. |
Go and talk to your neighbor and tray to sulfa the problem. Talk about the problem and what the options is to make it right. e.g. If his farm is goat farm and you have wild animals on your farm. Then your animals eats the goats, so tray to make the fence stronger.
| SPECIFIC OUTCOME 4 |
| Maintain the fence. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
| A fence is repaired to ensure that it always meets the prescribed standard. |
If a fence is broken always make it right with the same kind off wire than the fence.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
| River crossings are repaired to the prescribed standard. |
So this is the 2 basic ways of doing fence in a river, and must do fence checking to repair or fix a problem if needed.
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
Problem in a fence id identified and know we are correcting it by using appropriate techniques and tools also equipment.
- Will need a wire puller because we can't pull hard to make it tight.
- Will need 2 pliers
- Will need droppers
- Y-Standards
- Support
- Post
- Extra wire if needed
