Rural crime is on the increase in Devon, according to insurers NFU Mutual.
They say it went up by 16 per cent last year compared to the previous 12 months - and describe the rise as 'disappointing'.
Quad bikes and farm machinery have been targeted by thieves - and expensive tractors are also stolen by criminal gangs and sold overseas.
