Department of Agriculture in Missouri 5th District (MO-05)

Agriculture × MO-05 is not a farm census

Agency 012 and Missouri 5th District (MO-05) meet in one place-of-performance cell. $1,038,058,785.71 is the obligation sum tagged to that pair. It is not the district's full $21,186,523,187.16 book, not every Agriculture dollar in Missouri, and not an outlay. The Missouri 5th District hub still lists other awarding agencies; the Department of Agriculture hub still lists other districts.

2,267 rows can reflect many assistance instruments or modifications; the packet does not say which. Treating the count as 2,267 unique farms invents a census. A metro-district label does not change the join: geography is place of performance. Correlation with local food-system news is not causation.

MO-05's district book beside agency 012

4.9% of $21,186,523,187.16 is tagged to Department of Agriculture in this extract. Other awarding agencies fill the rest of Missouri 5th District. Adding those rows into $1,038,058,785.71 would double-count. The Missouri 5th District page at /districts/MO-05/ is the parent without an agency-012 filter.

Department of Agriculture at /agencies/012/ drops the MO-05 filter. Missouri federal spending at /states/mo/ drops the district cut. All spending ties at /ties/ indexes other pairs. Do not treat $1,038,058,785.71 as statewide Agriculture obligations.

2,267 records are not unique producers

2,267 is the join award-record count, not unique recipients. Dividing $1,038,058,785.71 by 2,267 would invent a typical payment the packet never computed. Named producers and processors are unpublished. Keep the row count on agency 012 × MO-05.

What Agriculture in MO-05 omits

Place of performance is a geography tag, not proof that a USDA state office sits in MO-05. Keep agency 012 and Missouri 5th District on the same citation as $1,038,058,785.71.
