Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) federal funding in FY2025

USAspending.gov records $887,036,194.27 in obligations for CFDA 10.310, Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI), in fiscal year 2025, across 1,506 awards. Program and year are the pair. One thousand five hundred six records is a high-count competitive-research file. The implied mean is about $588,735.85 per award — a packet quotient, not a typical USDA grant size this extract can prove as a median. The program’s published extract is $2,412,523,817.20 on 3,916 awards, so FY2025 is a large yearlyTrend slice without being the entire book.

  • The cell is not a yield score or an outlay total.

What the 10.310 × FY2025 join is

CFDA 10.310 and fiscal year 2025 meet here. $887,036,194.27 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. An AFRI award coded to another year is out. A FY2025 award under a different USDA research CFDA is out even if the lab sounds related. This packet does not name land-grant campuses, investigators, or contractors. Unique recipients are unpublished.

Program-wide 3,916 awards totaling $2,412,523,817.20 remain the parent. Open CFDA 10.310, FY2025 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties for the program book, the year hub, sibling codes, and other pairs. Do not add those pages into $887,036,194.27.

1,506 research actions versus 3,916 program-wide

Dividing $887,036,194.27 by 1,506 yields about $588,735.85. Competitive research portfolios mix standard grants, continuing increments, and supplements; 1,506 is not 1,506 unique labs. Means are not medians. Do not invent university names.

FY2025’s share of $2,412,523,817.20 is a descriptive ratio of packet facts, not a finding that agricultural research grew or shrank. Correlation is not causation. Other years are not this page. Smith-Lever extension (a different CFDA) is a different join.

Not a yield or nutrition score

$887,036,194.27 does not measure crop yields, food-safety outbreaks, or nutrition outcomes. Those series are unpublished here. The cell sums obligations with CFDA 10.310 and a FY2025 tag. Catalog title text is the heading, not an efficacy claim. This page does not split the total by challenge area or state. This page offers no farming or dietary advice.

Obligations, not outlays

Even a thick research file records commitments, not necessarily payments. $887,036,194.27 can include multi-year project periods that pay later. Citing it as cash already spent on AFRI over-reads the field. No outlay total is in this packet.

Keep both keys. FY2025 is the federal fiscal year on the award records. Dropping the CFDA collapses AFRI into a generic year hub.

How to cite AFRI in FY2025

A usable footnote names Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) (CFDA 10.310), fiscal year 2025, $887,036,194.27 in obligations, and 1,506 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. The compact $887 million is that cell rounded. Prefer CFDA 10.310 if the program table refreshed.

FY2025 federal spending still includes every other CFDA tagged to that year. All programs lists sibling codes. All spending ties indexes other pairs. A later ingest can restate $887,036,194.27 without changing the join definition.

Competitive research without a yield dashboard

One thousand five hundred six awards totaling $887,036,194.27 sit inside $2,412,523,817.20 on 3,916 awards program-wide. FY2025 is a large yearlyTrend slice, not the entire AFRI book. The implied mean near $588,735.85 is a competitive-grant texture cue, not a median this packet publishes. 1,506 is not 1,506 unique labs. This packet does not name land-grant campuses or investigators. Crop yields, food-safety outbreaks, and nutrition outcomes are unpublished. This page offers no farming or dietary advice. Smith-Lever extension (CFDA 10.511) is a different join even when the campus is the same legal entity this packet does not name.

Cite CFDA 10.310 × FY2025, obligations not outlays. Multi-year awards can obligate in one year and pay later. CFDA 10.310, FY2025 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties are the four hrefs. Do not add them into $887,036,194.27. Unique recipients stay unpublished. If the program table refreshes, rewrite the dollar sentence and leave the pair labeled Agriculture and Food Research Initiative crossed with fiscal year 2025.

Agricultural-research folklore does not add yield tables. $887,036,194.27 on 1,506 records is CFDA 10.310 in FY2025. Campus names and nutrition outcomes stay unpublished. Smith-Lever is CFDA 10.511, a different join. CFDA 10.310, FY2025 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties are hubs. This page offers no farming advice.
