It depends on the spacing of the posts and the shape of the field to be fenced in.

If the field is 1 meter by 4800 meters and the posts placed 2 1/2 meters apart then you will need 3840 posts.

If the field is circular and the posts placed 2 1/2 meters apart then you will need 98 or 99 posts.

If the field is square and the posts placed 2 1/2 meters apart then you will need 108 posts.

Any shaped field, therefore, will have between 98 and 3840 posts needed to fence it in. as the perimeter will be at least 245 meters for a circular field and as much as 9602 meters for a 1 meter wide field (assuming no part of the field is less than 1 square meter). All other possibilities will fall in between these two extremes.

Note: by increasing or decreasing the distance between posts the number of posts will decrease or increase accordingly.
