Department of Agriculture obligations in Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00)

Reading agency 012 inside WY-00

Awarding agency 012 and congressional district WY-00 meet here. $645,557,427.61 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Agriculture’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split USDA agencies or contract versus assistance instruments. 4,669 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a farm census, a SNAP caseload, an acreage total, or a named-grantee file.

This page reports agriculture awarding activity USAspending tagged to this district. The headline $645,557,427.61 sits beside a district-wide obligation total of $13,688,384,887.17; the 4.7% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of Wyoming districts as winners or losers. District 90 and 98 placeholders are omitted from this harvest. Obligations are not outlays.

Agency 012 without inventing a component pie

USAspending labels awarding agency 012 as Department of Agriculture. That code produced $645,557,427.61 when crossed with Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00) place of performance. The agency-wide 012 hub does not require WY-00 geography. The district hub does not require Agriculture. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 4,669 awards. The packet does not split USDA agencies or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00) did not “cause” $645,557,427.61 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 012 × WY-00 only. It is not a farm census, a SNAP caseload, an acreage total, or a named-grantee file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

How Wyoming At-Large is coded

Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list WY-00 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Wyoming districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 012. Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00) is Wyoming’s at-large congressional geography in the USAspending district field, so the stamp covers the state as one district rather than a numbered slice. Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00) is the state’s single at-large geography. It is not a numbered multi-district slice and not placeholder 90 or 98.

Wyoming federal spending shows how agency 012 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same state extract. $645,557,427.61 is one district-agency column, not the state table. This packet does not split Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different awarding-agency code stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Department of Agriculture. The district-wide obligation total published here is $13,688,384,887.17; $645,557,427.61 is the Agriculture slice of that denominator.

What the dollar figure is allowed to mean

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $645,557,427.61 is that kind of sum for Department of Agriculture inside WY-00 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same awarding-agency rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $645,557,427.61 as given.

Wyoming’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 4,669-row Agriculture cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 4,669 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($138,264.60) is a concentration statistic, not a typical WY-00 Agriculture payment.

Parents of this tie: district, agency, state

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Agriculture (agency 012) obligated $645,557,427.61 on 4,669 awards coded to Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00). Name Department of Agriculture and Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00) together. Keep the obligation word. If Wyoming At-Large District or Department of Agriculture has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a farm census, a SNAP caseload, an acreage total, or a named-grantee file. 4.7% of $13,688,384,887.17 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.

Keep Department of Agriculture, Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00), $645,557,427.61, and 4,669 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Department of Agriculture is the 012 parent without a WY-00 filter. Wyoming federal spending is the Wyoming parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with Agriculture does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.

Limits of the WY-00 × 012 snapshot

4,669 awards is a mass-action Agriculture file. Volume pulls the implied mean down. Unique recipients and ranch counts are unpublished. A large row count makes a program split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $138,264.60) and the district share (4.7% of $13,688,384,887.17) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Wyoming At-Large District and Department of Agriculture if the live tables moved.

Questions

How much Agriculture spending is coded to Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00)?

Does $645,557,427.61 include every Agriculture program in WY-00?

The packet does not split USDA agencies or contract versus assistance instruments. $645,557,427.61 is the combined obligation sum for agency 012 inside WY-00 coding.

Is $645,557,427.61 cash already paid in Wyoming At-Large District (WY-00)?
