Farm security is national security, and it is an effort the FBI takes seriously.
One agent tells us it is important for small farms to make it a priority.
According to Special Agent Scott Mahloch, “If you have a small family farm, and maybe you’re holding that milk for a couple of days before it’s picked up, how do you safeguard that milk? And a lot of times, I think these discussions really hit home, because when you’re a small family farm, security is often an afterthought, if a thought at all. So, it’s great to have these one-on-one conversations and let them know and understand what those vulnerabilities are, but most importantly, that they have an advocate for them in the field, and that we’re there for them as a resource if they have any questions.”
