I'm guessing the rabbits are chewing the tape because they need the water. If
you can't get rid of the rabbits, I wonder if creating some small water
troughs in your fields might solve this--it would give them an easier source,
and might cut down on the chewing. Last October, which was extremely dry here
in Massachusetts, I was losing lots of raspberries because the yellow jackets
were eating the tips out. I watered more, and got the leaves wet, and they
started drinking that, instead of raspberry juice.
