the prairies of kansas historically are not plentiful sources of trees or loose stone, fence building materials commonly found in other parts of the country. barbed wire, therefore, is ideally suited to the plains. in the 19th century, lumber in large quantities was prohibitively expensive for most consumers to import to kansas for fencing. how, then, was a pioneer farmer or rancher going to fence in his land? the solution for many settlers was a special kind of wire that could be stretched taut between fence posts to keep predators out, keep livestock in, and to signal to other homesteaders that this land was already taken. barbed wire was ideally suited to the wide-open spaces of kansas lands. it was relatively inexpensive, would not rot, was practically unaffected by fire, was strong and long-lasting, and was easily erected. introduced in the 1860s, it quickly became widely-used. between 1875 and 1885, the national consumption of barbed wire jumped from 300 tons to 130,000 tons. barbed wire, also known as barb wire, less often bob wire or, in the southeastern united states, bobbed wire, is a type of steel fencing wire constructed with sharp edges or points arranged at intervals along the strand(s). it is used to construct inexpensive fences and is used atop walls surrounding secured property.

it is also a major feature of the fortifications in trench warfare (as a wire obstacle). a person or animal trying to pass through or over barbed wire will suffer discomfort and possibly injury. barbed wire fencing requires only fence posts, wire, and fixing devices such as staples. it is simple to construct and quick to erect, even by an unskilled person.
