It is difficult to say, I've seen them 12' to 20'. Average seems to be 1 post per rod or 16.5 feet. Some have 3 strand but most use 4 strand. All t post, alternating t & wood, wood every 3d, 4th, or 5th. 2 or 3 wood posts with cross braces every 1/8 mile or so to make short stretches for tighenting wire.
Depends upon your cattle: bulls, cows, cows with small calves, steers, or some crazy black angus steers.
Depends on what is on the other side: a state highway with lots of traffic, county road, another pasture, wife's flowers, cattle that may intermix with yours, etc.
An extra hot wire or two depending upon the size of your cattle is cheap insurance.
Do you burn your pasture? Less wood to burn the better although you can stay on top of it and keep your posts from all burning.
