Federal Spending Report — 2026-06-29

Federal Spending Brief: June 29, 2026

The Department of Agriculture distributed $143,000 across 10 grants on June 29, 2026, with the majority of funding flowing to Idaho and a single large award exceeding $34,000 in Maine.

The day's spending activity centered on a single contractor receiving all obligated funds through the Department of Agriculture. The largest individual award totaled $34,000 as a grant to a recipient in Maine, while Idaho captured the bulk of the day's activity with five separate grants totaling $66,000. Three consecutive $14,000 grants went to Idaho recipients, suggesting a coordinated distribution of agricultural support across the state.

Idaho emerged as the clear focus of the spending day, accounting for nearly 46 percent of total obligations. Beyond Idaho's $66,000, the remaining funds were distributed more sparsely: Georgia received $22,000 across two awards, while Mississippi and Ohio each received $11,000 through single grants. Maine's $34,000 award represented the largest single transaction of the day.

All 10 awards issued on this date took the form of grants rather than contracts, indicating direct financial assistance to recipients rather than procurement activity. The Department of Agriculture's singular agency involvement underscores a focused spending initiative, with no competing agency activity recorded for the period.

The concentration of awards to a single contractor and the identical grant amounts across multiple Idaho recipients suggest these distributions may represent components of a broader agricultural assistance program or initiative. The lack of geographic diversity beyond five states indicates targeted regional support rather than nationwide distribution.
