Michael "Mick" Hawkes has a storied military career followed by a storied corporate career in security from the U.K. In the early days of his special forces work, he was part of the response to terrorism in Northern Ireland. Part of his special forces duty included doing days worth of surveillance on farms, and then covertly entering the buildings of the farm to look for weapons and explosives. During this surveillance he saw the weaknesses that farmers had when it came to security, and he later used that to his advantage. Years later, after his corporate career, Mick has decided to try and help the people of the U.K. as well as people all over the world to increase their situational awareness and increase their personal safety. This has led to the development of Hawkes And Co. and the training that he and his daughter are offering to everyone from elementary school children to corporate leaders. Included in their target audience is farmers, which is how I found Mick. On today's show we will talk about Mick's agricultural business, but we will also discuss how farmers can improve situational awareness and security on their farmsteads.

Jana Earp is the Advertising and Partnership Manager at Texas & Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association in Fort Worth, Texas. The TSCRA began as a conglomerate of ranchers in Texas that banded together to stop cattle rustling in 1880. Since the this group has evolved, officially becoming the TSCRA in 1921. It's mission also evolved and turned from being focused on catching cattle rustlers to helping people succeed not just in raising cattle but in all aspects of agriculture. This episode was originally going to be aired as a rural crime episode. However, it also evolved. The TSCRA does so much to help people from anywhere in the country to succeed in agriculture that this interview felt more like an ag business episode. So today, Jana will introduce the TSCRA to all of you and let you know exactly how this organization can help you succeed in agriculture.

Because of the holidays and the way they fell this year, I am not producing a rural crime episode this week. However, on tomorrow's ag business episode I am doing a show all about the Texas And Southwestern Rural Cattle Association, which I was introduced to through hosting this rural crime episode. So, for today's re-cap episode I thought it made sense to go back and revisit a rural crime interview that I had been able to do. This interview with Debi Metcalf of Net Posse made a lot of sense as there is significant overlap between what her organization does and what the TSCRA does. So, I'm bringing it back for you today.

Tip Of The Week Learn what a reactionary gap is and how to maintain one. Rural Crime In The U.S. Are the folks in this audience more susceptible to being defrauded of money? Well.....Perhaps. Anytime that you have a goal that involves a lot of money, and it is difficult or next to impossible to figure out how you will obtain the money needed to reach the goal you become more susceptible to being scammed. Then you see a success story like this one and start thinking that the only way you will find success is by getting WAY OUTSIDE THE BOX like this young man did: https://www.agweb.com/news/business/farmland/young-farmer-makes-history-uses-video-games-and-youtube-buy-18m-land So, in today's episode I want to take a minute to point out a scam that is currently underway. This is not necessarily a specifically rural crime, but if you are trying to find a way to create the capital needed to purchase your farm, you might stumble across these people while you are searching. Of course, they would be more than happy to take your money and disappear, even if you don't live in an urban environment and are not one of their traditional victims. I've said many times that in order to succeed in our entrepreneurial journeys we may need to leave agriculture to obtain something (expertise, training, money, etc.) and then bring it back to agriculture for the lifestyle that we are seeking. But this is not what I meant! https://www.orangeleader.com/2022/12/07/video-can-you-identify-this-man-who-stole-from-tractor-supply/ Across The Pond, Down Under And Up Above https://uk.news.yahoo.com/two-old-lags-caught-secret-060000256.html https://www.stourbridgenews.co.uk/news/23173977.stourbridge-farmer-hit-theft-60-sheep/ Africa https://www.newvision.co.ug/category/news/two-suspected-cattle-thieves-lynched-in-kaber-149174 Chalk One Up For The Good Guys https://www.bctribune.com/news/deputies-recover-stolen-tractor-side-side https://www.wbiw.com/2022/12/07/man-arrested-while-driving-on-the-flat-tire-of-a-stolen-grain-truck/ https://www.star-telegram.com/news/nation-world/national/article269719656.html More Places You Can Listen to Off-Farm Income And Matt Brechwald:

Two weeks ago on our rural crime episode I read a report of a "mock sheep theft" that was conducted by the University Of New England in Australia involving Ceres Tag and Mapipedia. On tomorrow's ag business interview I am interviewing the creator of Mapipedia and talking all about how it can help with livestock theft detection and recovery as well as biosecurity and management of grazing. I thought it made perfect since to play our previous interview with David Smith, the creator of Ceres Tag on today's re-cap episode to prime you for what we will be talking about tomorrow. The original show notes are below: Every week on our rural crime episode I report on stories of stock theft in the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Canada, etc. For so many years it has just seemed at best to be a nuisance that came with raising livestock and at worst, a devastating incident that could drive you out of business. Technology has actually helped stock thieves. For all of our efforts to brand livestock, keep electronic records and surveil the most likely location to sell the stolen stock it still goes on. And today with big pickups and bigger livestock trailers in addition to portable working pens, it is easier than ever for thieves to take off with your livestock without leaving a trace. At least in the 1800s, they could only move as fast as the cattle, and they left tracks to follow. Today, on a paved road, there is no such luck. It is about time that technology jumps ahead of the stock thieves, and I think that it has happened. A couple weeks ago I read an article about a livestock tag that communicates directly with satellites in outer space and that is very difficult to remove from a cow's ear. I reached out to the company and asked if this tag had been designed to help combat livestock theft, and they told me that it had been. I immediately requested an interview to profile this new technology for all of you. Today the CEO and Co-Founder of Ceres Tag, David Smith, joins us to talk about getting rid of stock theft. David is going to talk about all the capabilities of this tag that he and his wife invented in Australia, and what the implications will be both for theft deterrence as well as grazing efficiency and direct marketing. There are some incredible possibilities here, and I am eager to share them with you! More Places You Can Listen to Off-Farm Income And Matt Brechwald:

I was have not been in or anywhere close to the farm studio all week. Since, I produce the rural crime episodes "fresh", the day before they publish each week, I was not able to produce one for you this week up to the quality standard that I hold myself to. In lieu of a "stale" rural crime episode I decided to share the rural crime prevention tips that I created for Sirius XM Channel 147 with you. I am hoping that you will listen to these as you drive the tractor or get down the road in the pickup and that one of them will give you an idea that helps to prevent crime on your farm!

51 weeks out of the year on our rural crime episode I will be focused on "rational choice" type criminal activity that is the most likely to be what we will experience on our farms or rural properties. However, today I am going to focus on interpersonal violence. Some of you may have heard of Gavin De Becker, or his best-selling book, The Gift Of Fear. Others of you may not be familiar with him or his work. I am a huge fan, and have been lucky enough to have some significant involvement with his company, Gavin De Becker & Associates. Over the course of this week I have been listening to an interview he recently did with Joe Rogan on the Joe Rogan Experience. I have embedded the link to the episode below. This was a great reminder of what a resource that Gavin De Becker is, and why I am such a fan. In today's episode I am going to take some time to describe my experiences working with and using the products created by Gavin De Becker & Associates to justify why I am recommending that you consume one of their for profit resources and two of their free resources. In the United States, for the vast majority of people, interpersonal violence is something that we will likely never experience. This is good, but it is also bad because it can lead to complacency. If you are unlucky enough to encounter a situation like this, there will have been warning signs ahead of time that were likely missed. The free resources that I am recommending can give you the skills and remind you to pay attention to your intuition to help you get out of these situations before they ever escalate to this level. I think that this information is valuable enough, that I am taking an entire episode to discuss it with you today. More Places You Can Listen to Off-Farm Income And Matt Brechwald:

A couple weeks ago during our rural crime episode I reported on the theft of saddles and other tack at a horse competition in the U.K. Contained in that article was the story of the saddle owners, Ibi Whatley, who was angered enough by the theft to take action. She had started a Facebook Group called "Stolen Saddles U.K." and it had gained a lot of attention in a short amount of time. I knew that there must be more to the story, so I reached out to Ibi and asked her to be a guest on the show. Today she answers all of my questions about what happened, who she suspects took the tack and where it is now. Plus, we find out some very useful information about locks and how what we think is secure might not be. I think this will be an important episode for anyone, no matter which continent you find yourself on. More Places You Can Listen to Off-Farm Income And Matt Brechwald:

As you know, I don't normally conduct interviews for our rural crime episode. However, every now and then an article about rural crime will pop into my inbox and compel me to do just that. This week I am featuring an interview with Dr. Diane Charlton, Assistant Professor of Agricultural Economics at Montana State University in Bozeman. Dr. Charlton and two of her colleagues collaborated on a study looking at the impact of migrant labor during peak work seasons to see whether or not crime rates increased. Their results indicated that not only did crime rates not increase, they decreased when there was a large influx of migrant laborers and copious amounts of work to be done in agriculture. In today's episode we will discuss her research and findings.
