The series documents the stories of people who have been victims of agricultural crime.

The first season of the series tackles crimes such as cattle rustling, oyster poaching, livestock theft, and cargo theft.[5] The second season looks at crop, lobster, and horse theft, elver poaching, and invasive species that threaten agriculture.[6]
