What the EQIP–Mississippi join reports

CFDA 10.912 is titled ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY INCENTIVES PROGRAM. Crossed with Mississippi place of performance, the obligation sum is $268,812,549.13 on 7,944 awards. The national EQIP hub includes other states. Mississippi’s spending hub includes other programs. Only this intersection is reported here. $268,812,549.13 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of acres treated.

Conservation Stewardship Program, Agricultural Conservation Easement Program, and other NRCS catalogs use different CFDA numbers. Mixing them into $268,812,549.13 would invent a broader conservation total than this cell contains. Packet facts are $268,812,549.13, 7,944 awards, MS, and 10.912. Correlation is not causation.

Reading 7,944 awards under Mississippi EQIP

7,944 awards against $268,812,549.13 yield a simple mean near $33,838. The facts do not publish a median, a range, or unique recipients. A high award count is typical of producer-level conservation contracts, but 7,944 is still a record count in an aggregate, not 7,944 farms and not 7,944 completed practices.

Many small instruments can share one producer across modifications. Unique recipient names are unpublished and are not invented here. Downward modifications, if they exist in the raw file, are already netted into the total supplied in the facts. Treat the mean as arithmetic, not as a typical contract size without a distribution.
