praedial larceny

While such theft is almost universal, this term is primarily used in the Caribbean region where it is widely acknowledged to be a practice negatively impacting development of agriculture. Praedial larceny has moved from the theft of small amounts to large amounts of produce involving in some instances truckloads of bananas, an entire field of pineapples or the harvest of a freshwater fish pond with a determination among the thieves that poses serious dangers to farm families and farm workers. In countries legislation treats livestock theft as part of praedial larceny. In other legal systems or academic writing, livestock theft (or livestock rustling) is discussed as a separate offence, while praedial larceny is reserved for theft of crops and other agricultural produce.
