Why security is essential in the agricultural sector
Agricultural businesses are increasingly targeted by theft and vandalism. This includes the theft of machinery, fuel or materials, as well as damage to crops and installations. The rising value of agricultural equipment and materials makes farms more attractive targets for criminals. It has become a growing problem in the Netherlands, with farmers and agricultural entrepreneurs facing significant financial losses each year due to the disappearance of machinery, fuel and other valuable materials. Offenders often strike during quieter periods on the premises, such as in the evening or at night, resulting in substantial financial damage. Without proper security, losses can run into thousands of euros.
What makes our security solution suitable for agricultural locations
Our mobile camera surveillance has been used for years on construction sites and industrial premises but is also highly effective in agricultural environments. Thanks to their flexibility and autonomous operation, the systems are ideal for remote farms, stables or storage areas, with or without a fixed power supply. With the Unit For Observation (UFO), we monitor your site 24/7 and identify risks at an early stage. Smart detection technology immediately recognises suspicious movements. When unwanted activity is detected, an operator at the Kooi Alarm Center responds instantly, for example with a loud siren or a spoken warning. If a real threat is confirmed, our specialists coordinate security partners or the police at no extra cost.
