PFA, Insurance
Firm Sign Pact
CAMP HILL (Cumberland
Co.) The Pennsylvania Far
mers’ Association (PFA) and
Nationwide Insurance have signed
a letter of understanding to form a
sponsor relationship.
The action was announced
today by Keith W. Eckel, PFA
president, and John E. Fisher,
Nationwide’s general chairman
and chief executive officer, after
their respective boards approved
the proposal.
As a sponsor, PFA will promote
Nationwide Insurance products
and services to its more than
23,000 members. The sponsor
agreement calls for Nationwide
Insurance and PFA to work
together on mutually beneficial
programs involving insurance,
membership development and
safety education.
Nationwide is one of the largest
multi-line insurers in Pennsylva
nia and the nation. A $3O-billion
enterprise headquartered in Col
umbus, Ohio, Nationwide has
major customer service centers in
Harrisburg and Butler.
“We are taking this major step
in our insurance program to better
serve PFA member families, both
for their personal and business
insurance needs,” Eckel said.
“This move is the next logical
phase in the development of a
strong insurance program for PFA
members.”
Fisher said, “This sponsor
agreement continues Nationwide
Insurance’s heritage of establish
ing special programs to provide
insurance services and products
for agricultural organizations. We
look forward to a beneficial rela

Facts:
• Durable Patz hook-and-eye link chain allows easy
maintenance. Progression forging builds extra strength
in hook-and-eye link contact points. Final heat treating
increases hardness, strength and wear resistance.
• Choice of two link sizes to match gutter length.
• Four-tooth sprocket drives every link. Each sprocket
tooth drives each link behind the hook the link’s
thickest and strongest point.
• Flexibility for various layouts.
• Select 2” steel angle flites for solid manure or 4” high
flites for slurry manure. Flites are welded to Patz links,
• Three drive unit sizes match your gutter length and
allow expansion.
• Comer wheel top-and-bottom flanges guide the chain
around the comer. Comer wheel assemblies remove
easily for service without concrete breakout.
• Automatic chain tightener.
• Heavy-guage steel slide with steel center beam for
added strength.

Commenting further on the
agreement, Eckel said, “When we
started offering insurance services
in 1977, we had only one goal in
mind and that was to meet the
insurance needs of our members.
That’s still our goal. We sought an
insurance company that would
offer a full line of insurance, give
our members strong, long-term
stability, and great potential.
Nationwide Insurance meets those
criteria. '
“Nationwide has more than 750
insurance agents in Pennsylvania
and an extensive network of
claims representatives. They will
be a major benefit to our mem
bers. And Nationwide’s financial
strength will give us the flexibility
to meet farmers’ growing insur
ance needs.”
Eckel said the sponsor decision
came after PFA made a major
study of the insurance needs of
Pennsylvania farmers and had
explored different ways to meet
those needs. PFA operates an
insurance agency which offers a
full line of insurance to its
members.
PFA, headquartered in Camp
Hill, was organized in 1951, is the
largest general farm organization
in Pennsylvania. It’s affiliated
with the American Farm Bureau
Federation.
Nationwide was started in 1926
by the Ohio Farm Bureau Federa
tion. The company has sponsor
relationships with that federation,
the Maryland Farm Bureau, Inc.,
Farmland Industries, Inc. of Kan
sas City, Mo., and Ruralite Ser
vices, Inc. of Forest Grove, Ore.
