Of the 74 subsidies provided, the largest was for Marcus Russell, which received $50,875 for the claim of "Pandemic Assistance for Timber Harvesters and Haulers Program".
The smallest subsidy provided to a Magoffin County farmer was $18 to Eleanor Whitt.
There were 210 fewer subsidies than the year before, and the total value of the subsidies fell by $36,361.
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.
