Emergency Commodity Assistance Program federal funding in South Dakota
Emergency Commodity Assistance Program (CFDA 10.121) shows $482,839,582.80 in USAspending.gov obligations with South Dakota as place of performance. Thirty-seven thousand nine hundred eighty-nine awards sit behind that total — a high row count relative to the dollar sum, not thirty-eight thousand farms as a verified census. The join is a USDA commodity-assistance listing crossed with a state location field, not South Dakota's entire farm budget. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.
Key figures
- CFDA 10.121 in South Dakota shows $482,839,582.80 in USAspending obligations on 37,989 awards.
- Emergency Commodity Assistance is a USDA producer listing, not crop insurance or the full farm budget.
- Thirty-seven thousand nine hundred eighty-nine awards are rows, not a farm census.
- The total is commitments, not cashed checks or a disaster ranking.
South Dakota x 10.121 is a commodity-aid join, not a farm census
This page pairs CFDA 10.121, EMERGENCY COMMODITY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, with South Dakota place of performance. The listing covers emergency commodity assistance to producers, not crop insurance indemnities and not every USDA farm program. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $482,839,582.80 on 37,989 awards. The extract does not list producers, commodities, or counties. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state had a worse season, and not a claim that 37,989 awards equal 37,989 farms.
Other USDA listings — crop insurance, disaster programs under other CFDA numbers, or conservation — sit outside $482,839,582.80 unless they also carry 10.121. Mixing emergency commodity aid with those codes would invent a combined farm figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and acreage is not causation. Acreage is not in the packet. Place of performance as South Dakota locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $482,839,582.80 in producer accounts.
37,989 awards behind $482.8 million
Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible producer-level payment lines. It is not a census of farms, acres, or commodities. Mean obligation is about $12,710 if $482,839,582.80 were divided evenly across 37,989 lines — a mechanical ratio consistent with many modest producer payments, not a published per-acre rate, and not a typical annual farm payment. The packet has no crop split inside 10.121.
Thirty-seven thousand nine hundred eighty-nine lines are too many to narrate one by one. Sort the South Dakota 10.121 overlay by amount to see whether a few large rows dominate or the dollars sit in many small producer lines. This page will not invent producer names. Open Emergency Commodity Assistance Program in South Dakota for the stored table. Do not convert 37,989 into a map of South Dakota farms.
Commodity-aid obligations are not checks already cashed
Producer-assistance awards often obligate in many small rows and draw as USDA issues payments. The $482,839,582.80 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of commodities delivered and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. A USDA disaster table dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses CFDA 10.121, South Dakota geography, and the obligation metric.
The listing title is Emergency Commodity Assistance Program. This extract does not split corn from soybeans or livestock, and it does not split counties. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 37,989 awards, CFDA 10.121, and South Dakota. This page will not invent a share.
What the South Dakota 10.121 table omits
The extract has no acreage, no commodity split, and no producer roster. Facts remain $482,839,582.80, 37,989 awards, CFDA 10.121, and South Dakota. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 10.121 joins. Crops and livestock can both sit in the file; the extract does not label them.
South Dakota federal spending and South Dakota programs place 10.121 among other listings. CFDA 10.121 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other CFDA x state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of USDA spending the packet never computed. The $482,839,582.80 figure is the tagged pair only.
Where the 10.121 x South Dakota overlay lives
Start with Emergency Commodity Assistance Program in South Dakota for the 37,989-award table behind $482,839,582.80. CFDA 10.121 is the nationwide listing. South Dakota federal spending and South Dakota programs give state context. All spending ties is the shelf for other program-by-state joins on the same obligation metric. Thirty-seven thousand nine hundred eighty-nine awards are assistance rows, not a farm census. Producer names and acreage are not in this packet.
Readers who need a different program or a different state should leave this URL rather than adding numbers by hand. The $482,839,582.80 figure is the tagged CFDA 10.121 × South Dakota pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. Place of performance is a geography tag on awards, not proof that every dollar stayed inside South Dakota after obligation. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page's facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $482,839,582.80 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts.
How to read the South Dakota × CFDA 10.121 pair
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is the assistance listing (CFDA 10.121). The other is place of performance as South Dakota. The headline $482,839,582.80 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that CFDA 10.121 caused South Dakota's economy to grow, or that South Dakota caused CFDA 10.121 awards to exist. Correlation between geography and a catalog code is the join — nothing more.
Use the internal links to step off this pair: the statewide spending shelf, the national program listing, the state's other programs, and the ties index. Each of those pages uses the same obligation metric unless a page says otherwise. If you need award-level names, open the overlay or the stored table rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory. If you need a different metric — outlays, current-year only, or a different geography — that metric is not in this packet.
