Of the 147 subsidies provided, the largest was for Francis David Ankiewicz, which received $11,900 for the claim of "Conservation Reserve Program Payment - Annual Rental".
The smallest subsidy provided to a Wyoming County farmer was $2 to John & Richard Kobylski.
There were four more subsidies than the year before, and the total value of the subsidies fell by $173,625.
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.
