Emergency Commodity Assistance Program in South Dakota

South Dakota x 10.121 is a commodity-aid join, not a farm census

This page pairs CFDA 10.121, EMERGENCY COMMODITY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, with South Dakota place of performance. The listing covers emergency commodity assistance to producers, not crop insurance indemnities and not every USDA farm program. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $482,839,582.80 on 37,989 awards. The extract does not list producers, commodities, or counties. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state had a worse season, and not a claim that 37,989 awards equal 37,989 farms.

Other USDA listings — crop insurance, disaster programs under other CFDA numbers, or conservation — sit outside $482,839,582.80 unless they also carry 10.121. Mixing emergency commodity aid with those codes would invent a combined farm figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and acreage is not causation. Acreage is not in the packet. Place of performance as South Dakota locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $482,839,582.80 in producer accounts.

37,989 awards behind $482.8 million

Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible producer-level payment lines. It is not a census of farms, acres, or commodities. Mean obligation is about $12,710 if $482,839,582.80 were divided evenly across 37,989 lines — a mechanical ratio consistent with many modest producer payments, not a published per-acre rate, and not a typical annual farm payment. The packet has no crop split inside 10.121.

Thirty-seven thousand nine hundred eighty-nine lines are too many to narrate one by one. Sort the South Dakota 10.121 overlay by amount to see whether a few large rows dominate or the dollars sit in many small producer lines. This page will not invent producer names.

Questions

How much Emergency Commodity Assistance is obligated in South Dakota?

USAspending.gov shows $482,839,582.80 in obligations for CFDA 10.121 with South Dakota as place of performance, across 37,989 awards. The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not South Dakota's full farm budget. Other USDA listings are outside this join unless they also carry 10.121.

Do 37,989 awards mean 37,989 South Dakota farms?

No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include producer-level payment lines. It is not a farm, acre, or commodity census. The packet does not name producers. See the South Dakota 10.121 overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Is this South Dakota's entire federal farm funding?

No. The join is CFDA 10.121, Emergency Commodity Assistance Program, crossed with South Dakota place of performance. Crop insurance and other USDA farm codes use different listings. Those dollars are not inside $482,839,582.80 unless the award also carries 10.121.

Is $483 million already paid to South Dakota producers?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $482,839,582.80 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Check dates and remaining balances are not published in this packet.
