Combatting Crime and Protecting Equipment

Rural crime is a growing concern, and it can have a devastating impact on the communities affected by it. A latest NFU mutual poll has even discovered that a third of respondents know someone who has had to change the way they live or work due to it.

From theft and vandalism to livestock rustling and machinery theft, rural crime can be costly and disruptive, and can leave farmers and rural residents feeling vulnerable and unsafe.

One of the key factors contributing to rural crime is the isolation of rural communities.  Farms and rural properties are often located in remote areas, making them more vulnerable to theft and other crimes. This is compounded by the fact that many rural properties have large areas of land, making it difficult to monitor all areas of the property at all times.

Another contributing factor is the value of the assets found in rural areas. Livestock and farming equipment found on rural properties can be very expensive, making them an attractive target for thieves. This is especially true for equipment that is difficult to trace or has a high resale value, such as tractors or other machinery.

Fortunately, there are steps that rural residents can take to protect themselves from rural crime.
