Would you actually allow metal detecting on your land?
Quick survey for farmers and landowners (2 minutes):
​
I’m researching how farmers currently handle metal detecting permissions, and whether a simple system could make it easier to manage safely and transparently.
​
This is **not a product launch** — just a short questionnaire to understand real opinions from farmers.

​
The idea being tested is a free system that could help with things like:
​
* Choosing which fields (if any) are open
* Setting dates and visitor limits
* Only allowing verified detectorists
* Keeping a record of visits
* Logging finds (optional)
* Managing paid permissions if used
​
But the main focus right now is just understanding whether this is something farmers would actually want at all.
​
Even a “no, I wouldn’t use anything like this” answer is useful.

Thanks for your time.
