Of the 31 subsidies provided, the largest was for James Dean Trimble, which received $4,789 for the claim of "Coronavirus Food Assistance Program 3 - Livestock and Poultry".
The smallest subsidy provided to a Menifee County farmer was $73 to Colton Hugh Stull.
There were 83 fewer subsidies than the year before, and the total value of the subsidies fell by $90,627.
Kimberly Amadeo of The Balance said farmer subsidies "help high-income corporations, not poor rural farmers. Most of the money goes toward large agribusinesses."

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.
