Default Food Plots and cattle

I am going to put a food plot down in a pasture, which is occasionally visited by cattle. It is about 1 acre and I was going to build a barbed wire fence (2 strands) around it. I was just wondering if this is going to be enough to keep the cattle out. I don’t want to spend a lot of money on the fence. ANY SUGGESTIONS?


Thanks

At least make one of the strands "electric", otherwise, if your food plot is better, or looks better, than what the cattle are grazing on, they will go through two strands in a heart beat!!
