George, I used a single wire of electic fence about 8 inches up for years when I lived in on 5 acres near a subdivision. That worked well. Several years back I moved to the country on 40 acres. Turns out those country coons are smarter. I put one wire, then two, then three with a 4th ground wire. No luck. I don't know how those guys figured to get through it but they did. I finally ran a single wire down each row of corn about a foot off the ground. That did the trick. There is no way they can get in there without getting a good shock. Don't go cheap on your fencer. Get at least a 2 Joule model which will cost $100 or so. That is strong enough not to ground out when a few corn stalks or leaves get on it. This method is not really practical for a large patch, but for my garden of about 50 x 150 it works good. Also, I don't run the fence wires until the corn is starting to tastle.
