Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program — CFDA 10.582

FFVP dollars on 229 award records

Assistance listing 10.582 is titled FRESH FRUIT AND VEGETABLE PROGRAM in the USAspending.gov files this site indexes. The obligation total on that code is $908,565,310.94. An obligation is a recorded federal commitment on an award. It is not an outlay. Treating $908.6M as produce already eaten mixes two series. SpendingVault keeps the label as obligations.

229 awards sit under that dollar book. Dividing $908,565,310.94 by 229 produces a mean near $3.97 million per award record. That quotient is derived from the two packet totals. It is not a typical school-district snack budget and not a cost per serving. Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program dollars often sit on state-agency assistance actions, which is why 229 records can carry $908.6M.

55 recipients matching 55 states

CFDA 10.582 lists 55 recipients and 55 states against 229 awards. Recipient count is not unique students. It is how many organizational recipients the assistance extract stores for this listing. The 55/55 pairing is a formula-like file: one primary organizational recipient per coded jurisdiction carrying multiple award rows. 55 is not a census of elementary schools. The 55-state span is a coded-jurisdiction count, not a map of every cafeteria.

229 awards against 55 recipients averages about 4.2 award records per recipient. Extra modifications can lift the 229 tally without moving $908,565,310.94 much. The FFVP hub keeps dollars, awards, recipients, and states visible so one statistic is not inferred from another.

Obligations versus nutrition outlays

USAspending.gov publishes obligations on assistance awards. The $908,565,310.94 figure for CFDA 10.582 can include commitments that will disburse later. A meals-served table, a produce-purchase invoice file, and a Treasury outlay series are different publications. This page does not translate the obligation total into those series.

If a number you expected is missing, the usual cause is a different reporting concept. Start from the obligation definition, then open the 10.582 program page. Do not stretch 229 awards or 55 recipients to cover every federal dollar that touches school fruit and vegetable snacks.

What the 10.582 tables omit

The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a student roster, not a serving-count file, and not a farm-to-school vendor list. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $908,565,310.94. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 229 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 55 states is a coding field. A statewide grantee coded to one cell can dominate geography while schools sit in many counties. Read the program page before any state split.

A worked reading of the 10.582 extract

Start from the four packet facts: $908,565,310.94, 229 awards, 55 recipients, and 55 states under CFDA 10.582. The mean near $3.97 million is a quotient from a modest award count, not a typical school snack contract. If a later USAspending.gov file adds large state actions, dollars can jump while 55 recipients barely move. If modifications proliferate, 229 can rise while the dollar book stays close to $908.6M.

Nothing in the extract splits fruit from vegetables, or elementary from other school types. Those cuts live outside this packet. Treat CFDA 10.582 as an assistance-listing tag on USAspending.gov award files. Open the program page, then the all-programs index, for a same-series ranking. Cite 229 awards and 55 recipients next to the dollars so the state-agency pattern is visible.
