Swedish Farmer Advocates for Nofence Virtual Fencing Technology Amid Expansion Plans

Henrik Zetterqvist, a farmer from Gäversnäs, Sweden, has become a strong proponent of the Nofence virtual fencing system, having started using it in spring 2026. Initially testing 10 collars, Zetterqvist was impressed by its effectiveness and promptly ordered 25 more. The technology’s modular design allows him to maximize grazing areas, including hard-to-reach spots beneath power lines, thereby expanding usable pastureland.

Zetterqvist praised the system’s ease of use and flexibility, noting that it even allowed him to manage grazing remotely during a flight using Wi-Fi onboard SAS planes. While animals needed some time to adapt to virtual boundaries and occasionally challenged real fences, the overall experience was positive. As an ambassador for Nofence, he actively participates in product demonstrations and testing.

Looking ahead, Zetterqvist plans to increase his use of Nofence as the company prepares to launch new collar models featuring heat and calving alarms, as well as a strip grazing function that automates pasture access. He recommends the technology to farmers seeking flexible grazing management, especially in varied terrains where traditional fencing is challenging.
