At Nationwide, our deep-rooted connection to agriculture traces back to our founding in 1926 as the Farm Bureau Mutual Automobile Insurance Company. Created by farmers for farmers, our original mission was to deliver quality auto insurance to rural communities often overlooked by larger insurers.
Over the years, our dedication to the agricultural community has grown, incorporating innovative solutions to meet the evolving and diverse needs of the agriculture, food and fuel sectors. This evolution reflects our understanding that agriculture is the backbone of our nation, requiring tailored insurance products that cater to its unique challenges and risks.
Our enduring relationship with the agricultural sector shows our historical and ongoing dedication. We have built strong partnerships with various agricultural organizations, investing in research and education to stay ahead of industry trends. Early growth came from working with Farm Bureaus that sponsored the company.
Today, Nationwide is number-one farm insurer in the country* and the approved insurance and financial service provider of eight Farm Bureaus. As we continue to grow and evolve, our commitment to supporting and protecting the agriculture community remains strong, reinforcing our role as a pillar of strength and reliability in the industry.
