“Equity is a vital consideration in all we do at USDA,” Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said in a release. “We must see to it that the programs we support and the investments we make are available to all and that we take distinct action in ensuring that historically underserved farmers and ranchers are able to participate in USDA programs and benefit from the opportunities USDA investments and programs can help create.”


Stalin's collective farming program believed in equity. It also killed some 30 million people.

Where the food will rot on the shelves because the minorities don’t want it.

Central State university will receive $566,148.
You do know this will not go directly to the Farmers of Color. These grants will go to NGOs closely affiliated with the “Progressives”. Same as it ever was. Just picking up wher Obama left off.

Graduation does not matter. There a lot of money in HBCU Grifters, all. Nothing about lifting up students.
“Central State University faculty and staff set a new school record in sponsored research and external funding by garnering $26.7 million during the 2020-21 fiscal year.

Central State University beat its previous record of $21 million achieved in the fiscal year 2019-20 and continues the University’s rapid growth in annual sponsored research funding. Central State’s external funding has increased by over 114% over the last four years from, $12.5 million in 17/18 to $26.7 million in 20/21.”

I know more than a few farmers. They are very self sufficient and do not have any need to be served. What group of farmers pray-tell require special help?

"...Stalin's collective farming program believed in equity. It also killed some 30 million people..."

In Stalin's case, it wasn't all due to stupidity or ineptitude. It was deliberate.

Well Gilroy and the state of California just destroyed my cousins farm in Gilroy after almost 100 years of farming. FOAD Newsom and the whole state and local politics. They’re cutting off their nose to spite their face and it’s hurting something fierce.

Giving 1,000 farmers $2500 isn’t going to help expand farming. It might provide some relief in helping to pay bills and it might also buy a used jon boat.
