Is it permissible to pass through a farm when we do not know whether its owner permits it or not?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, if a farm has a road in it, and we do not know whether its owner permits it or not, may a person pass through it?

The Shaykh : If it is a road, as you say there is a road in it.

The questioner : People may need it.

The Shaykh : If he wishes, he can put up a fence. If there is a road... because the owner of the farm, if he wished, could put up a fence and prevent people from entering.
As for a farm that is surrounded by a fence, if you, for example, cut this fence and walk along with it, this is not permissible except with the consent of its owner.
