Department of Agriculture in Nevada

USDA awards tagged to Nevada

Department of Agriculture as awarding agency, Nevada as place-of-performance: 4,631 records summing to $4,100,365,846.82. A Department of Agriculture award coded outside NV is out. An award in Nevada from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Nevada (NV) excludes California, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, and Oregon. A Reno-versus-Las Vegas split is unpublished; both share one NV stamp.

Four thousand six hundred thirty-one awards is a mid-count USDA file — far thinner than Nebraska’s 255,935-row cell, still not a handful of oversized rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 4,631 as 4,631 unique farms, ranch acres, or unique producers. The overlay Department of Agriculture in Nevada is the both-keys table. Nevada federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Agriculture is the agency book without an NV filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Nutrition, conservation, forest, and farm instruments can share 012. This packet does not say which dominate $4,100,365,846.82. Correlation is not causation: Nevada did not “cause” $4,100,365,846.82 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 012 × NV only.

Not cattle, forage, or a desert-farm story

$4,100,365,846.82 does not measure farms, ranch acres, or unique producers. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 012 and an NV place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 4,631 awards as a census of farms, ranch acres, or unique producers. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Nevada federal spending or Department of Agriculture matched $4,100,365,846.82 and 4,631, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. California, Arizona, and Utah USDA joins are other pairs, not addends.
