Scioto County 5000 reward

A $5,000 reward was paid to William Boggs for information he provided that led to the arrest and eventual conviction of a person who stole items from a Farm Bureau member’s property.

Pictured above are Ohio Farm Bureau State Trustee Wyatt Bates, who had the theft; Deputy Woodford, Scioto County Sherriff’s Department; and Kim Harless, Ohio Farm Bureau senior organization director.

Ohio Farm Bureau’s Property Protection Program was started more than 50 years ago with the purpose of deterring crime in rural areas. In essence it is a neighborhood watch program. The program pays a $5,000 reward to anyone providing information to law enforcement that leads to the arrest and conviction of persons for eligible property crimes committed against a Farm Bureau member’s property.

To obtain Property Protection Program signs, contact the Scioto County Farm Bureau office, [email protected] or 800-777-9226. You must be a Farm Bureau member to have the property protection program in place for your property.

See the member benefit page for all program terms and conditions.

To grow a network and gain perspective and knowledge in the industry through personal and professional development has been invaluable. Every day I learn and grow.

Farm Bureau connections
The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.

Giving farmers a voice
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.

Bringing the farm back to life
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.

Farm Bureau involvement
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.

So many of the issues that OFBF and its members are advocating for are important to all Ohioans. I look at OFBF as an agricultural watchdog advocating for farmers and rural communities across Ohio.
