Nominating Committee
Who knows better what farmers need than farmers themselves? AgCredit’s Nominating Committee is a committee comprised of 18 stockholders representing the 18 Counties within our Northern Ohio chartered territory. They are elected by the voting stockholders of the cooperative.
As a nominating committee member, their responsibility is to identify, evaluate, and nominate at least two willing and suitable candidates for each open director position. By being the representative of their own County, they better know who would make a strong director candidate.
The committee also nominates candidates to replace themselves on the next year’s Nominating Committee. Because a nominating committee is not a committee of the board, its independence from board and management influence is critical to the success of our financial cooperative and the preservation of stockholder control.
