University of Saskatchewan tests funded by the National Research Council show porous windbreaks protect cattle better than solid walls and reduce grain loss on farm trucks. F B McPherson conducted the study under Prof E B Moysey, suggesting 20 percent porosity and adding short wings to reduce crosswinds. The research, dating from university labs to highway trials, notes porous barriers slow wind and lower turbulence, offering cheaper, more effective shelter and grain retention.
