Conservation Stewardship Program overlapping USDA — CFDA 10.924
The pair is Conservation Stewardship Program × Department of Agriculture. $4,079,721,325.60 is the obligation aggregate for rows that carry both CFDA 10.924 and awarding-agency 012. The join obligation $4,079,721,325.60 equals the CFDA program total of $4,079,721,325.60 in this extract, so this packet does not publish a leftover Conservation Stewardship Program slice at a second awarding agency. Correlation is not causation: the join does not prove that Department of Agriculture caused Conservation Stewardship Program activity, only that USAspending coded the two keys together. It is not a producer ranking or a named contract roster.
SpendingVault indexes the cell from USAspending.gov. The catalog title on the program side is CONSERVATION STEWARDSHIP 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 $4,079,721,325.60 as obligations on the Conservation Stewardship Program–USDA pair.
CFDA 10.924 as the Conservation Stewardship Program side
CFDA 10.924 is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier for Conservation Stewardship Program. The program-wide obligation total in this extract is $4,079,721,325.60. That figure is a program rollup, not a second headline for the Department of Agriculture slice unless the two amounts match. Do not treat $4,079,721,325.60 as cash Treasury already sent. Producer names, acres, and enhancement codes are unpublished on this packet.
Open CFDA 10.924 at /programs/10.924/ for the program hub. That page is not this join: it can include other awarding agencies if the extract lists them, and it is still obligations rather than outlays. This ties page stays on CFDA 10.924 awarded by agency 012 only.
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 Stewardship Program. Reading $4,079,721,325.60 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.
56,345 awards as a CFDA table, not a farm census
The extract lists 56,345 awards on the Conservation Stewardship 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 $4,079,721,325.60 by 56,345 is not published here as a typical award size, because the packet does not say the rows are comparable.
Acreage rankings this stewardship–USDA join cannot support
An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $4,079,721,325.60 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared on Conservation Stewardship Program over-reads the field. The join cannot say that Department of Agriculture specialized in Conservation Stewardship Program because of a policy success metric this packet omits. Keep $4,079,721,325.60 labeled as Conservation Stewardship Program obligations awarded by Department of Agriculture.
Budget justifications, program evaluations, and press releases answer other questions. They are not the source of this cell. If a chart mixes a different CFDA with Department of Agriculture or a different awarding agency with Conservation Stewardship Program, the chart has left this join. Producer names, acres, and enhancement codes are unpublished on this packet.
