Conservation Reserve Program awarded by Department of Agriculture

Conservation Reserve Program overlapping USDA — CFDA 10.069

The pair is Conservation Reserve Program × Department of Agriculture. $2,083,045,133.10 is the obligation aggregate for rows that carry both CFDA 10.069 and awarding-agency 012. The join obligation $2,083,045,133.10 equals the CFDA program total of $2,083,045,133.10 in this extract, so this packet does not publish a leftover Conservation Reserve Program slice at a second awarding agency. Correlation is not causation: the join does not prove that Department of Agriculture caused Conservation Reserve Program activity, only that USAspending coded the two keys together. It is not a farm ranking or a named CRP-contract list.

SpendingVault indexes the cell from USAspending.gov. The catalog title on the program side is CONSERVATION RESERVE PROGRAM. The agency name on the awarding side is Department of Agriculture. Neither label is a contractor, a place of performance, or a fiscal-year stamp — this packet publishes no fiscal year. Cite $2,083,045,133.10 as obligations on the Conservation Reserve Program–USDA pair.

CFDA 10.069 as the Conservation Reserve Program side

CFDA 10.069 is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier for Conservation Reserve Program. The program-wide obligation total in this extract is $2,083,045,133.10. That figure is a program rollup, not a second headline for the Department of Agriculture slice unless the two amounts match. Do not treat $2,083,045,133.10 as cash Treasury already sent. Producer names, acres enrolled, and contract years are unpublished on this packet.

Agency 012, Department of Agriculture

Department of Agriculture is awarding-agency 012 on USAspending assistance rows. The agency hub Department of Agriculture at /agencies/012/ rolls up every program that agency awards in the index, not only Conservation Reserve Program. Reading $2,083,045,133.10 as Department of Agriculture’s entire book would over-read this cell. The join is one CFDA inside one agency, not a department budget justification.

Do not add Federal Election Commission contribution totals to $2,083,045,133.10. Campaign-finance receipts and USAspending award obligations are separate public-record systems even when a geography or a calendar year happens to overlap. This packet has no FEC facts.

853,527 awards as a CFDA table, not a farm census

The extract lists 853,527 awards on the Conservation Reserve Program × Department of Agriculture table. That is an award-record count, not a census of farms. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. Dividing $2,083,045,133.10 by 853,527 is not published here as a typical award size, because the packet does not say the rows are comparable.

853,527 is the award-record count on this extract, not a published census of farms. Unique vendors and places of performance are unpublished. Do not read 853,527 as 853,527 finished projects in Conservation Reserve Program.

Acreage rankings this CRP–USDA join cannot support

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $2,083,045,133.10 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared on Conservation Reserve Program over-reads the field. The join cannot say that Department of Agriculture specialized in Conservation Reserve Program because of a policy success metric this packet omits. Keep $2,083,045,133.10 labeled as Conservation Reserve Program obligations awarded by Department of Agriculture.
