Suzanne Dickson of Americana Insurance in Albert Lea successfully completed a series of educational courses and has achieved the On Your Farm-certified agency designation from Nationwide Agribusiness Insurance Company. Completing the training program means farmers and ranchers can depend on an On Your Farm-certified agent to understand their farming operations, provide basic risk assessment that can help reduce expenses, educate them about exposures, match the correct coverages to their needs and provide professional, knowledgeable service.

“We’re excited that Suzanne has completed this certification program,” said Tom Sorenson, agency manager. “We have made a commitment to help protect farmers and ranchers in our area with the highest level of professionalism and service. This certification tells our area farmers that we’re committed to helping protect them now and into the future.”

The designation is intended to help farm and ranch customers recognize agents who make a commitment to understanding the complex risks faced by the agriculture industry. Only agents who successfully complete the program will be awarded the designation, and agents must re-certify every three years.
