Research has revealed that the cost of crime in the countryside is at its highest in five years. Therefore, being vigilant and proactive in protecting your farm, livestock and property is a vital part of rural life.
A rise in the amount of farmland for sale in England has been forecast as more landowners look to sell up ahead of direct subsidy payments being phased out during the Brexit transition period. Land buyers are also predicted to be in shorter supply, as many postpone the decision to buy vacant property until the post-Brexit arrangements are known.
Vacant properties are vulnerable properties and security measures are essential to reduce risks of theft, damage and vandalism.
Many farms are homes as well as places of business, so any criminal activity can have both a financial and an emotional impact. Taking security precautions can help safeguard your family and your business.
Security barriers can prevent criminals, particularly those driving 4x4s, from accessing your private farmland.
Burglar alarm systems, complete with infra-red motion detection, installed in prominent sight can help to deter criminals.
CCTV cameras will monitor your property whether you’re at home or not. In the event of a break-in the recorded footage will enable you to review any criminal activity and provide vital evidence.
