Environmental Quality Incentives Program in Nebraska

Nebraska and CFDA 10.912 as a pair

CFDA 10.912 is titled ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY INCENTIVES PROGRAM. Crossed with Nebraska place of performance, obligations sum to $142,940,603.33 on 4,298 awards. The national 10.912 hub includes other states. Nebraska’s spending hub includes other programs. Only this intersection is reported here. $142,940,603.33 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of Nebraska EQIP contracts or farms.

4,298 awards is a very thick NRCS cost-share file with thousands of rows. The join does not name recipients. Packet facts are $142,940,603.33, 4,298 awards, NE, and 10.912. Correlation is not causation. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Keep EQIP and Nebraska together when reading $142,940,603.33.

EQIP, not Conservation Stewardship

Conservation Stewardship Program (CFDA 10.924) is the sibling NRCS catalog. Mixing 10.912 and 10.924 in Nebraska would invent a combined EQIP-and-CSP book. Mixing those series into $142,940,603.33 would invent a broader total than this cell contains. Facts available: Nebraska, CFDA 10.912, $142,940,603.33, 4,298 awards. Producer names, practice codes, and contract acres are unpublished.

The catalog title names Environmental Quality Incentives Program, not a ranking of Nebraska counties by EQIP dollars. Dividing $142,940,603.33 by 4,298 yields about $33,257 per award. Unique recipients are unpublished. 4,298 is not a farm, practice, or named-producer census.

A very thick 4,298-row file against $142,940,603.33 yields about $33,000 per award as a ratio only. Continuations and practice-level instruments add rows. Scottsbluff folklore is not a Panhandle-only split. Iowa-coded EQIP awards stay outside. Recipients stay unpublished. Quote Environmental Quality Incentives Program in Nebraska, CFDA 10.912, Nebraska federal spending, Nebraska programs, and All spending ties as separate pages rather than summing them.

Nebraska geography on the EQIP tag

NE is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Lincoln, Kearney, or Scottsbluff can share the tag. Awards coded to Iowa, Kansas, South Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, and Missouri stay outside $142,940,603.33 even when activity later crosses those lines. The code does not convert $142.9 million into a cost-share atlas.

Nebraska federal spending is the all-program parent. 10.912 is one row on Nebraska programs. $142.9 million is not the state’s complete federal footprint. Open Environmental Quality Incentives Program in Nebraska for the filtered table, CFDA 10.912 for the catalog without a Nebraska filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $142,940,603.33.

4,298 awards, still obligations

$142,940,603.33 ÷ 4,298 is about $33,257 per award. That average is a low-five-figure mean on a very thick file, not a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 4,298 as a record count, not as 4,298 unique farms or 4,298 named producers.

Without a transaction register, you cannot see how many of the 4,298 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections. Later ingests can restate $142,940,603.33 without changing the join key of 10.912 and NE. USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $142,940,603.33 is the net total supplied in the facts. The pair remains EQIP plus Nebraska. Do not treat $142,940,603.33 as an outlay series.

What Nebraska EQIP does not prove

A large 10.912 total tagged to Nebraska does not measure whether Nebraska nutrient runoff fell, and it does not equal cost-share checks already issued. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $142,940,603.33 on 4,298 awards for EQIP in Nebraska.

Keep both sides of the join: Environmental Quality Incentives Program and Nebraska, obligations only. Do not annualize $142,940,603.33 without a year field—this packet publishes none. Do not treat 4,298 as a farm, practice, or named-producer census. Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than an irrigation-practice narrative. Cite EQIP together with Nebraska whenever you reuse $142,940,603.33.
