As a farmer or rancher, did you know that you might not qualify for Social Security benefits in retirement? Do you know how to get your current Social Security statement of benefits?
Ohio Farm Bureau is committed to helping you protect your financial independence and is working with our No. 1 partner Nationwide to deliver a series of valuable learning sessions designed to help you plan for retirement.
During the Social Security, the Choice of a Lifetime webinar, Nationwide can show the simple steps to take to identify future projected Social Security benefits and help you create a filing strategy.

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

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.
