Abstract: Multiple USDA programs disburse payments to farm operations each year. Payments to farm operators totaled $14.8 billion in 2019, based on data from USDA’s Agricultural Resource Management Survey. More than 30 percent of about 1.97 million U.S. farms received some government program-related payments that year, with an average payment of $24,623.
