Well, first you need to know the length of barbed wire in a roll. Then you need to know the perimeter of the fence (in feet or metres) you are going to build around that 180 acres. Then, calculate it this way: (length of barbed wire in one roll) x (perimeter of fence of 180 acres) = (total length of wire needed for "n" ft. (or m) of fence perimeter of one strand) (total length of wire needed for "n" ft.(or m) fence perimeter of one strand) x 5 = (Grand total length of wire needed to fence 180 acres) (Grand total length of wire needed to fence 180 acres) / (length of barbed wire in one roll) = (# of rolls needed for a five-strand barbed wire fence for 180 acres)
It depends on what shape the one acre is, and what kind of fence is to be installed. For example, a simple livestock fence consisting of woven wire and a three-strand barbed wire on top, and assuming the acre is square will require 835 feet of woven wire, 2,500 feet of barbed wire, 12 corner posts, and about 70 steel T-posts. Different shapes of field will change this, and different types of fencing require different materials.
The answer depends on the material and thickness of the wire.

The cost of a roll of barbed wire can vary depending on factors such as length, gauge, and quality. On average, a roll of barbed wire can range from $50 to $200 or more. It is advisable to shop around and compare prices from different suppliers to find the best deal.
80 acres is 880 x 440 feet. Depends on how many cattle and how rough they are on your post settings. Most people around here in Oklahoma put their t-posts roughly 16' apart. This will take 164 posts. A roll of barbed wire will usually run a quarter of a mile of fence. So on a typical 5 wire fence it will take 30 rolls of barbed wire.
