fenced pasture
Bounded livestock field
A fenced pasture is grazing land enclosed by barriers—wire, wood, or electric fencing—to contain livestock.
The phrase distinguishes managed grazing areas from open range, where animals roam freely: The cattle were moved to the fenced pasture for the summer.
In land descriptions, it often appears alongside other acreage categories like woodland or cropland.
