Of the 79 subsidies provided, the largest was for Joe Thomas, which received $99,436 for the claim of "Wildfires and Hurricanes Indemnity Program - Plus 3 Assistance Program".
The smallest subsidy provided to a Borden County farmer was $46 to Todd Holbrooks.
There were 44 fewer subsidies than the year before, and the total value of the subsidies fell by $172,720.
Kimberly Amadeo of The Balance said farmer subsidies "help high-income corporations, not poor rural farmers. Most of the money goes toward large agribusinesses."
USDA data analyzed by the Cato Institute found that "farmers (on net) have derived almost 40% of their income directly from the U.S. government” in recent years.
The U.S. has provided farm subsidies since the Great Depression to assist farmers who weather price fluctuations and disasters to help maintain consistent farming across the country.
