Farm and agriculture crime prevention
Every year rural crime costs millions of pounds and causes untold anxiety across the farming communities in the UK. We recognise that modern farming is often a lonely life and rural crime is adding to the pressures which are resulting in growing feelings of isolation and depression.
In 2020 rural crime cost the UK an estimated £43.3m. (Source NFU Mutual rural crime report 2021)
Farms and outbuildings contain large amounts of valuable equipment which thieves often target – machinery / plant, Quads / ATVs, tools and fuel.
By implementing good preventative measures you can deter criminals entering these locations and committing crime.
