In 2021 The NFU\u2019s report on rural Crime noted that theft had cost just under 44 million pounds in 2020.<\/p>\n
Agricultural vehicle theft rose from 7.4 million in 2018 to 9.1 million in 2020 that\u2019s a leap of around 18%.<\/p>\n
Rural crime continues to be a huge issue and its impact on farmers and growers is enormous. It also has far-reaching impacts on rural communities and our landscapes too.<\/p>\n

Gangs of opportunistic thieves, forced out of urban areas by lockdown in 2020 have targeted farms and farmers creating a rise of GPS dome thefts \u2013 which is double that of last year. They also steal anything else easily transportable \u2013 ATV\u2019s Quad bikes or bits of non powered machinery with a high scrap value.
\nOn the other hand, the actual vehicle thefts are usually undertaken by organized professional gangs, for a specific order, and are shipped overseas within hours.<\/p>\n
It is definitely time to protect your farm and possessions from thieves.
\nThe rural police team suggest a layered approach is best to consider \u2013 with many different tracking and alerting methods all working together.<\/p>\n
Live CCTV is certainly a useful solution, as is traditional live GPS tracking, added to which a small discrete easily hidable covert tracking unit, battery operated, magnetically mounted and compatible with a huge range of vehicles and both powered and non powered assets is extremely useful.<\/p>\n
The Invenio 740 is small, weatherproof with a powerful battery. It will alert you in when the unit is removed, or when the geofence is breached, allowing you to monitor and protect your possessions. Giving the peace of mind you deserve.
\nEvery single time a crime is committed on a farm the impact for the farmer and their family is heightened, a farm is a home as well as a place of work. Nobody has the right to encroach upon that.<\/p>\n
