Orchard Fencing?

What’s a good suggestion for “orchard” fence and fence posts? How high should I go? How deep should the posts go?
My current fence failed miserably this year and I need to bump it up (been fine for 4 years). I always figured I need to go below frost levels and up here- it’s deep. So just searching. Can’t see to find much “tall” fencing either. The local fencing company said they put posts in 4 ft deep typically.
Maybe I’m just over thinking things because it’s a “tall” fence?
 
8’ for sure!!! If it’s not gonna be up forever …. U could do like 5-6’ woven wire & a few strands above that. Or just do another layer of woven. But- if u shop around- u can get rolls of 8’ woven pretty reasonably. I’d spend the little extra and do it. Saves so much hassle. I did like 8 acres (over kill!) & so nice to have it protected.
