YUBA-SUTTER, CA (MPG) - Yuba-Sutter Farm Bureau President Brian Greathouse presented newly
published Ag Crime Resource Books to Sutter County Sheriff Barnes and his
command staff Nov. 3. The books provide deputies with information about
regional farming operations, seasonal activities and commonly used agricultural
equipment. Developed by a Farm Bureau summer intern with assistance from
members and directors, the guides aim to help law enforcement distinguish
routine agricultural activity from potentially suspicious behavior. The Farm
Bureau plans to distribute the books to patrol vehicles in both Sutter and Yuba
counties, with a presentation to the Yuba County Sheriff's Office scheduled for
the following week. Photo courtesy of Yuba-Sutter Farm Bureau
