The history of barbed wire

Around the mid-19th century, most of the farmers in the United States started to reclaim wasteland. They moved westward to the plain and southwest border respectively. Because of the relocation of agriculture, farmers are more aware of changing the environment.It marks a gradual shift from woodlands in the east to drier meadows in the west. Due to the difference in temperature and geographical location, the plants and habits of the two places are also different. There are stones everywhere and a lack water,  so they are lack of access to local agricultural tools and corresponding agricultural technologies after the relocation of agriculture. For new planting farmers in order to adapt to the new environment began to set barbed wire fence in their own growing areas.

As a result of the migration from east to west, the vast majority of people were provided with raw materials. From the beginning, they had built stone walls into the east. During the westward migration, many tall trees and wooden fences were found, It gradually expanded to the south, when cheap labor made construction easier. But in the westernmost part of the country, because fences and trees were less plentiful,fence settings were less extensive

Early phase because of the lack of materials, people's traditional concept of the fence can play a protective role and then their borders are not destroyed by other external forces and animal trampling, so the protection of consciousness is very strong.

Due to the lack of wood and stones, people are beginning to look for alternatives to use  fence and protect their crops. From early 1860 to early 1870, people began to cultivate plants with thorns as fences, but with little success because of the scarcity of plants and their high price, and the inconvenience of construction which led them to abandon. Due to the lack of fencing pioneering process is not so smooth. It was not until 1873 that a new study changed their predicament that , Illinois, invented the use of barbed wire to defend their land. From the beginning barbed wire has just entered the history of the process.

Production  and technology:

In China, most barbed wire factories use galvanized steel wire or plastic coated wire directly into barbed wire, which improves the productivity of the barbed wire, but sometimes it does not hold enough The disadvantages.With the development of technology, there are also some manufacturers began to use some ginning process, the wire surface is no longer completely smooth, thus greatly improving the stability of the role of stabbing.
