         The Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996 required the establishment of a Chief Information Officer (CIO) for all major Federal agencies.
            The Act requires USDA to maximize the value of information technology acquisitions to improve the efficiency and effectiveness
            of USDA programs. To meet the intent of the law and to provide a Departmental focus for information resources management issues,
            Secretary's Memorandum 1030â30, dated August 8, 1996, established the Office of the Chief Information Office (OCIO). The CIO
            serves as the primary advisor to the Secretary on Information Technology (IT) issues. OCIO provides leadership for the Department's
            information and IT management activities in support of USDA program delivery. The 2016 Budget requests $53 million.

         Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act and the Resource Conservation and Recovery
            Act, the Department must meet the same standards for environmental cleanup and regulatory compliance regarding hazardous wastes
            and hazardous substances as private businesses. With substantial commitments under these Acts, the Hazardous Materials Management
            account was established as a central fund so the Department's agencies may be reimbursed for their cleanup efforts. The Department
            determines what projects to fund by using objective criteria to identify what sites pose the greatest threats to public health
            and the environment. The 2016 Budget requests $3.6 million.

         The Office of the General Counsel of the Department of Agriculture provides legal advice, counsel, and services to the Secretary
            and to all agencies, offices, and corporations of the Department on all aspects of their operations. It represents the Department

            the Civilian Board of Contract Appeal, the Merit System Protection Board, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the

         The Economic Research Service provides economic and other social science research and analysis to inform public and private
            decision making on food, agriculture, natural resources, and rural America. The Agency's mission is to anticipate issues that
            are on the horizon, and to conduct sound, peer-reviewed economic research. ERS is also the primary source of statistical indicators
            that, among other things, gauge the health of the farm sector (including farm income estimates and projections), assess the
            current and expected performance of the agricultural sector (including trade), and provide measures of food security here
            and abroad. Most of the Agency's research is conducted by a highly trained staff of economists and social scientists through
            an intramural program of research, market outlook, and analysis.
         
         Five principles characterize ERS' core program: (1) Research that builds on unique or confidential data sources at the Federal
            level and is inherent in the role of a Federal Statistical Agency, including the Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS)
            and associated farm and farm household finance estimates, consumer data and related research on food consumption, and development
            of USDA's commodity market outlook; (2) Research that provides coordination for a national perspective or framework, setting
            a single standard; (3) Research that requires a sustained investment and large teams; (4) Research that directly services
            the U.S. Government or USDA's long-term national goals such as the cost to the economy of sickness and premature death due
            to foodborne illnesses for FSIS, rural definition analysis for Rural development, and conservation program options for FSA
            and NCRS; and (5) Research that addresses questions with short-run payoff or has immediate policy implications.
         
         ERS draws on the expertise of external collaborators through grants and cooperative research agreements for issues that require
            expertise beyond the scope of the current program or that require knowledge of state or regional issues. The 2016 budget request
            of $86,023,000 continues to fund ERS' highest priority core programs, including research, data, and market outlook on the
            following: How investments in rural people, businesses, and communities affect the capacity of rural economies to prosper
            in a changing global marketplace; economic issues related to developing natural resource policies and programs that respond
            to the need to protect the environment and the challenges of climate change while enhancing agricultural competitiveness;
            production agriculture, domestic and international markets, trade, and Federal farm policies, to understand the U.S. food
            and agriculture sector's performance in the context of increasingly globalized markets; the Nation's food and nutrition assistance
            programs, to study the relationships among factors that influence food choices and health outcomes, including obesity and
            to enhance methodologies for valuing societal benefits associated with reducing food safety risks. In addition to continuing
            ERS' core program of research, funding is requested for an initiative which will analyze linkages between shifting water supplies,
            farming practices, and food production using enhanced agricultural-environmental models for more precise measures of key relationships
            and integrated data from survey and administrative sources. The initiative's goal is to build a strong evidence base on public
            and private drivers of farm-level water use and responses to drought risk. Finally, ERS will dedicate funds to a second initiative,
            which will analyze barriers to entry for new farmers and ranchers. A key focus of the analysis will be identification of the
            extent to which USDA programs may help reduce those barriers.

         The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) provides the official National and State estimates of acreage, yield,
            and production of crops, stocks, value and expenditures associated with farm commodities, and inventory, values, and expenditures
            of livestock items. Data on approximately 120 crops and 45 livestock products are covered in over 400 reports issued each
            year. In addition, the Census of Agriculture, which is conducted every five years for years ending in 2 and 7, takes a snapshot
            of America's agriculture and provides comprehensive data on the Nation's agricultural industry down to the county level. NASS'
            responsibilities are authorized under the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 (7 U.S.C 1621â1627) and the Census of Agriculture
            Act of 1997, Public Law 105â113 (7 U.S.C. 2204 g(d)(f)).
         
         In 2014, NASS expanded the National Operations Division (NOD) by opening a new print and mail facility to serve the agency's
            needs. The print and mail facility is designed to gain greater efficiency in the NOD's operational and production practices.
            
         
         NASS continued the Computer Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI) program to provide inter-department expertise by collaborating
            with the U.S. Department of Commerce, and the U.S. Census Bureau in the development and deployment of a 2020 Census Mobile
            Solution. In addition, the NASS CAPI solution was shared with mobile technology industry leaders, both Federal and private,
            through numerous speaking engagements at multiple conferences.
         
         Agricultural Estimates.âThe Agricultural Estimates program is vital for producers, agricultural commodity markets in the U.S. and the world, policy
            makers in government, and people involved in making planning, investment, price discovery mechanisms, and marketing decisions.
            Billions of dollars could be put at risk without these essential Agricultural Estimates statistical reports. The work under
            this activity is conducted through 12 Regional offices and 34 State offices serving all 50 States. Cooperative arrangements
            with State agencies provide additional State and county data. In order to support Administration priorities and improve efficiency,
            NASS has carefully completed a comprehensive review of existing programs to determine which programs are most critical to
            serving agency goals, with evaluations based on the following prioritites: 1) Federal Principal Economic Indicator data; 2)
            data which directly impact commodity markets; 3) data necessary to implement the USDA programs which provide payments to farmers
            and are used to administer the farm safety net for producers; and 4) data for which there are no other publicly available
            sources of information.  In 2014, NASS achieved several accomplishments: 1) Improved census calibration process through collaborative
            efforts with Texas A&M University; 2) published the regular schedule of Agricultural Estimates Federal Principal Economic
            Indicators; and 3) redesigned the Chemical Use program to enable informed, science-based decisions. NASS's agricultural chemical
            use database is USDA's official source of statistics about on-farm and post-harvest fertilizer and pesticide use and pest
            management practices. It encompasses surveys looking at chemical use by producers of fruits, vegetables, field crops, livestock,
            and other animals and crops.
         
         Census of Agriculture.âThe Census of Agriculture provides the only source of comparable and consistent detailed data about agriculture and helps
            to measure trends and new development in the agricultural sector of our Nation's economy. The Census of Agriculture is critical
            because it provides comprehensive data on the agriculture economy, land use, production expenses, value of land and buildings,
            farm size and characteristics of farm operators, market value of agricultural production sold, acreage of major crops, inventory
            of livestock and poultry, and farm irrigation practices.  In 2014, NASS achieved several accomplishments: 1) Published the
            Preliminary and Final results of the 2012 Census of Agriculture as well as several Special Products and Tabulations; 2) released
            two census follow-on survey results including the Census of Aquaculture and the Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey which are
            conducted every five years; and 3) improved census calibration process through collaborative efforts with Texas A&M University.
         
          The 2016 total request is $180,346,000 for NASS, including $134,599,000 for Agricultural Estimates to 1) conduct the essential
            Federal Principal Economic Indicator surveys; 2) conduct other Core Integrated Surveys and Estimates to support USDA programs;
            3) conduct the Floriculture Report; 4) augment the established honey survey by additionally collecting information regarding
            honeybee management and loss in support of the President's initiative to gain more knowledge related to Colony Collapse Disorder;
            and 5) address antimicrobial resistance by adding questions to two surveys already established for Cattle on Feed, Hogs and
            Pigs, and add an annual Poultry survey. NASS continues to review its programs to improve efficiency and as a result of moving
            forward with the geospatial program, the Bee Studies, and the Antimicrobial Resistance data collection. 
         
         The 2016 NASS request includes $45,747,000 for the Census of Agriculture. NASS will 1) Continue planning and preparations
            for the FY 2017 Census of Agriculture; 2) continue producing the annual Current Agricultural Industrial Reports covering operations
            including: 2a) Animal & Vegetable Fats & Oils; 2b) Wet & Dry Mill Producers of Ethanol; 2c) Oilseeds, Beans, & Nuts; 2d) Flour
            Milling Producers; 2e) Cotton & Manmade Fiber; and 2f) Cotton in Public Storage; and as part of the Census Follow-on program
            conduct a 3) Local Foods Special Study; and 4) a Farm Structure Survey, focusing on women and new farmers. With the growing
            interest in supporting local agricultural economies through the purchase of locally grown foods more data is needed. NASS
            included a question on the 2012 Census of Agriculture in support of the USDA Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food Initiative,
            to benchmark the size of the local foods market.
         
         Miscellaneous funds received from local organizations, commodity groups, and others are available for dissemination of reports
            and for survey work conducted under cooperative agreements (7 U.S.C. 450b, 450h, 3318b). NASS also provides technical consultation,
            support, and assistance for international programs under participating agency service agreements.

         The Agricultural Research Service (ARS) is the principal in-house research agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
            ARS conducts scientific research to develop and transfer solutions to agricultural problems of high national priority and
            to provide information access and dissemination to: ensure high-quality, safe food, and other agricultural products; assess
            the nutritional needs of Americans; sustain a competitive agricultural economy; enhance the natural resource base and the
            environment; and provide economic opportunities for rural citizens, communities, and society as a whole. This mission is carried
            out through ARS' major research program areas and other activities listed below (in italics).
         
         The major research programs in ARS address and support the Department's priorities and are: New Products/Product Quality/Value
            Added; Environmental Stewardship; Livestock/Crop Production; Livestock/Crop Protection; Food Safety; and Human Nutrition.
         
         The 2016 Salaries and Expenses budget for ARS requests $1.192 billion which includes increases for new and expanded research
            initiatives in transformational crop and livestock genetics; combatting antimicrobial resistance; pollinator health; climate
            change resilience; agricultural sustainability; big data, earth sciences, and earth observation; vertical farming; and more
            competitive, sustainable small farms. An increase in funding is also requested for an apprentice farmer program and for repair
            and maintenance of the agency's laboratories and facilities. The proposed increases are partially offset by reductions and
            redirections of ongoing research. These offsets will help provide funding necessary for the critical research priorities proposed
            by the agency for 2016.
         
         New Products/Product Quality/Value Added._ARS has active research programs directed toward improving the efficiency and reducing the cost for the conversion of agricultural
            products into biobased products and biofuels; developing new and improved products for domestic and foreign markets; and providing
            higher quality, healthy foods that satisfy consumer needs in the United States and abroad.Environmental Stewardship.â The emphasis of ARS' environmental stewardship research programs is on developing technologies and systems
               that support sustainable production and enhance the Nation's vast renewable natural resource base. ARS is currently developing
               the scientific knowledge and technologies needed to meet the challenges and opportunities facing U.S. agriculture in managing
               water resource quality and quantity under different climatic regimes, production systems, and environmental conditions. ARS'
               research also focuses on developing measurement, prediction, and control technologies for emissions of greenhouse gases, particulate
               matter, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and volatile organic compounds affecting air quality and land surface climate interactions.
               The agency is a leader in developing measurement and modeling techniques for characterizing gaseous and particulate matter
               emissions from agriculture. In addition, ARS is evaluating strategies for enhancing the health and productivity of soils,
               including developing predictive tools to assess the sustainability of alternative land management practices. Finding mechanisms
               to aid agriculture in adapting to changes in atmospheric composition and climatic variations is also an important component
               of this program. ARS' range and grazing land research objectives include the conservation and restoration of the Nation's
               range land and pasture ecosystems and agroecosystems through improved management of fire, invasive weeds, grazing, global
               change, and other agents of ecological change. The agency is currently developing improved grass and forage legume germplasm
               for livestock, conservation, bioenergy, and bioproduct systems as well as grazing-based livestock systems that reduce risk
               and increase profitability. In addition, ARS is developing whole system management strategies to reduce production costs and
               risks.
         Livestock Production._ARS' livestock production program is directed toward fostering an abundant, safe, nutritionally wholesome, and competitively
            priced supply of animal products produced in a viable, competitive, and sustainable animal agriculture sector of the economy
            by: safeguarding and utilizing animal genetic resources, associated genetic and genomic databases, and bioinformatic tools;
            developing a basic understanding of food animal physiology to address priority issues related to animal production, animal
            well-being, and product quality and healthfulness; and developing information, best management practices, novel and innovative
            tools, and technologies that improve animal production systems, enhance human health, and ensure domestic food security.
         
         Crop Production._ARS' crop production program focuses on developing and improving ways to reduce crop losses while protecting and ensuring
            a safe and affordable food supply. The research program concentrates on production strategies that are environmentally friendly,
            safe to consumers, and compatible with sustainable and profitable crop production systems. Research activities are directed
            at safeguarding and utilizing plant genetic resources and their associated genetic, genomic, and bioinformatic databases that
            facilitate selection of varieties and/or germplasm with significantly improved traits. Research activities attempt to minimize
            the impacts of crop pests while maintaining healthy crops and safe commodities that can be sold in markets throughout the
            world. ARS is conducting research to discover and exploit naturally occurring and engineered genetic mechanisms for plant
            pest control, develop agronomic germplasm with durable defensive traits, and transfer genetic resources for commercial use.
            ARS provides taxonomic information on invasive species that strengthens prevention techniques, aids in detection/identification
            of invasive pests, and increases control through management tactics that restore habitats and biological diversity.
         
         Livestock Protection._ARS' research on livestock protection is directed at protecting and ensuring the safety of the Nation's agriculture and food
            supply through improved disease detection, prevention, control, and treatment. Basic and applied research approaches are used
            to solve animal health problems of high national priority. Emphasis is given to methods and procedures to control animal diseases
            through the discovery and development of diagnostics, vaccines, biotherapeutics, animal genomics applications, disease management
            systems, animal disease models, and farm biosecurity measures. The research program has the following strategic objectives:
            establish ARS laboratories into a fluid, highly effective research network to maximize use of core competencies and resources;
            ensure access to specialized high containment facilities to study zoonotic and emerging diseases; develop an integrated animal
            and microbial genomics research program; establish core competencies in bovine, swine, ovine, and avian immunology; launch
            a biotherapeutic discovery program providing alternatives to animal drugs; build a technology-driven vaccine and diagnostic
            discovery research program; develop core competencies in field epidemiology and predictive biology; establish a best-in-class
            training center for our Nation's veterinarians and scientists; and develop a model technology transfer program to achieve
            the full impact of ARS research discoveries.
         
         Crop Protection._ARS' research on crop protection protects crops from insects and diseases through research to understand pest and disease
            transmission mechanisms, and to identify and apply new technologies that increase understanding of virulence factors and host
            defense mechanisms. ARS research priorities include identification of: genes that convey virulence traits in pathogens and
            pests; factors that modulate infectivity, gene functions, and mechanisms; genetic profiles that provide specified levels of
            disease and insect resistance under field conditions; and mechanisms that reduce the spread of pests and infectious diseases.
            ARS is developing new knowledge and integrated pest management approaches to control pest and disease outbreaks as they occur.
            Its research will improve the knowledge and understanding of the ecology, physiology, epidemiology, and molecular biology
            of emerging diseases and pests. This knowledge will be incorporated into pest risk assessments and management strategies to
            minimize chemical inputs and increase production. Strategies and approaches will be available to producers to control emerging
            crop diseases and pest outbreaks and to address quarantine issues.
         
         Food Safety._ ARS' food safety research program is designed to yield science-based knowledge on the safe production, storage, processing,
            and handling of plant and animal products, and on the detection and control of toxin producing and/or pathogenic bacteria
            and fungi, parasites, chemical contaminants, and plant toxins. All of ARS' research activities involve a high degree of cooperation
            and collaboration with USDA's Research, Education, and Economics agencies, as well as with the Food Safety and Inspection
            Service (FSIS), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Centers for Disease
            Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ARS also
            collaborates in international research programs to address and resolve global food safety issues. Specific research efforts
            are directed toward developing new technologies that assist ARS stakeholders and customers, including regulatory agencies,
            industry, and commodity and consumer organizations, in detecting, identifying, and controlling foodborne diseases that affect
            human health.
         
         Human Nutrition._Maintenance of health throughout the lifespan along with prevention of obesity and chronic diseases via food-based recommendations
            are the major emphases of ARS' human nutrition research program. These health-related goals are based on the knowledge that
            deficiency diseases are no longer primary public health concerns in the U.S. Excessive consumption has become the primary
            nutrition problem in the American population. This is reflected by increased emphasis on prevention of obesity from basic
            science through intervention studies to assessments of large populations. ARS' research program also actively studies bioactive
            components of foods that have no known requirement but have health promoting qualities. Four specific areas of research are
            emphasized: nutrition monitoring; the scientific basis for dietary recommendations; prevention of obesity and related diseases;
            and life stage nutrition and metabolism, in order to better define the role of nutrition in pregnancy and growth of children,
            and for healthier aging.
         
         Library and Information Services._The National Agricultural Library (NAL) is the largest and most accessible agricultural research library in the world. It
            provides services directly to the staff of USDA and to the public, primarily via the NAL web site, http://www.nal.usda.gov. NAL was created with the USDA in 1862 and was named a national library in 1962, as the primary agricultural information
            resource of the United States. NAL is the premier library for collecting, managing, and disseminating agricultural knowledge.
            The Library is the repository of our Nation's agricultural heritage, the provider of world class information, and a wellspring
            for generating new fundamental knowledge and advancing scientific discovery. It is a priceless national resource that, through
            its services, programs, information products, and web-based tools and technologies, serves anyone who needs agricultural information.
            The Library's vision is "advancing access to global information for agriculture."
         
         Repair and Maintenance of Facilities._Funds are used to restore, upgrade, and maintain ARS' facilities to meet Occupational Safety and Health Administration and
            EPA requirements, provide suitable workspace for in-house research programs, and to retrofit existing structures for better
            energy utilization.
         
         Reimbursements._ARS performs research activities and services for other USDA, Federal, and non-Federal agencies. These activities and services
            are paid for on a reimbursable basis.

            of fixed equipment or facilities of or used by the Agricultural Research Service. 
         
         ARS operates an extensive network of Federally-owned research facilities strategically located throughout the United States,
            reflective of the wide geographic diversity and site specificity of agricultural production and distinct climatic and agroecosystem
            zones. The agency completed a review of its laboratory portfolio in 2012 and developed a plan for future capital investment
            that would be required to maintain this aging infrastucture. The resulting "Capital Investment Strategy" recommended modernization
            of selected facilities, the highest priority of which was the need for a biocontainment laboratory and consolidated poultry
            research facility in Athens, Georgia. This facility is needed to address gaps in the agency's ability to conduct critical
            research on exotic and emerging poultry diseases. The 2016 Budget request includes $114 million to complete the construction
            of this facility. In addition, the request includes funding for the modernization of the following high priority facilities
            as identified in the Capital Investment Strategy: Building 307 at the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center in Beltsville,
            Maryland ($37 million); the National Laboratory for Agriculture and the Environment in Ames, Iowa ($14 million); the Southwest
            Watershed Research Center in Tucson, Arizona ($12 million); and the Children's Nutrition Research Center in Houston, Texas
            ($29 million). These facilities have exceeded their functional lifespans and urgently need to be modernized so that ARS can
            safely and effectively carry out its research responsibilities.

         The National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) participates in a nationwide system of agricultural research and education
            program planning and coordination between State institutions and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It assists in maintaining
            cooperation among the State institutions, and between the State institutions and their Federal research partners. The agency
            administers grants and payments to State institutions to supplement State and local funding for agricultural research and
            higher education. 
         
         Payments under the Hatch Act._Funds under the Hatch Act are allocated on a formula basis to agricultural experiment stations of the land-grant colleges
            in the 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Micronesia, and Northern
            Mariana Islands. The 2016 budget includes $256.2 million, of which $12.5 million will be used for competitively-awarded grants
            that will complement existing programs in addressing national problems in food, agriculture, natural resources, nutrition,
            human sciences, and animal health.
         
         Cooperative forestry research._These funds are allocated by formula to land-grant colleges or agricultural experiment stations in the 50 States, Puerto Rico,
            Guam, the Virgin Islands, and other State-supported colleges and universities having a forestry school and offering graduate
            training in forestry sciences. The 2016 Budget is funded at $34 million.
         
         Payments to 1890 Institutions for Research._Funds allocated on a formula basis support agricultural research and broaden the curricula at the nineteen 1890 land-grant
            colleges, including Tuskegee University, West Virginia State University, and Central State University. The 2016 budget includes
            $60.5 million, of which $2.5 million will be used for competitively-awarded grants that will complement existing programs
            in addressing national problems in food, agriculture, natural resources, nutrition, human sciences, and animal health. 
         
         Special grants and other research programs._This program addresses research areas of national interest. The 2016 Budget includes $11.9 million for IR-4 minor crop pest
            management to address the growing need for registration of safe pesticides for minor crops and lead to a reduction by half
            in the levels of chemical residues in food products. Funding for agroclimatology (global change) is proposed at $1.4 million
            for research at universities as part of a coordinated Federal initiative. The 2016 Budget also includes funding for aquaculture
            centers at $4.0 million, and sustainable agriculture at $22.7 million. The 2016 Budget maintains funding at $1.9 million for
            the competitive 1994 Institutions research grants program to build research capacity at the legislatively eligible 1994 institutions
            by supporting agricultural research activities that address tribal, national and multistate priorities.
         
         Agriculture and Food Research Initiative competitive grants._Section 7406 of the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 (Pub. L. 110â246) establishes the Agriculture and Food Research
            Initiative (AFRI). AFRI is the core competitive grant program for fundamental and applied research, extension, and education
            to address food and agricultural sciences. AFRI projects will address critical issues in U.S. agriculture in the areas of
            food security; water resources; climate variability and change; sustainable bioenergy production; food safety; childhood obesity
            prevention; foundational science; and education and literacy initiative. Addressing these critical issues will engage scientists
            and educators with expertise in plant health and production and plant products; animal health and production and animal products;
            food safety, nutrition, and health; renewable energy, natural resources, and environment; agricultural systems and technology;
            and agriculture economics and rural communities. AFRI allows greater flexibility in the types of projects funded to include:
            single function projects in research, education, and extension, and integrated research, education and/or extension awards.
            The 2016 Budget proposes to increase funding for AFRI from the 2015 enacted level of $325 million to $450 million.
         
         Federal administration._A coordinating and review staff assists in maintaining cooperation within and among the States, and between the States and
            their Federal research partners. This staff also administers research and education grants and payments to States. Federal
            administration is funded from a combination of program set-asides from formula and grant programs and from direct appropriation
            for administration. The 2016 Budget includes $30.26 million, which is $1.4 million over the 2015 enacted level. Most of the
            increase will support the Grants Management Systems.
         
         Higher education._The 2016 Budget proposes $20.4 million for a capacity building program at the 1890 institutions as part of the USDA initiative
            to strengthen these institutions through a broadening of curricula, and increased faculty development and student research
            projects. The 2016 Budget funding is proposed for Hispanic-serving institutions education grants program at $9.2 million.
            Funding is also proposed for Native American institutions at $3.7 million, Alaska Native-serving and Native Hawaiian-serving
            Institutions at $3.2 million, and Grants for Insular Areas programs at $1.8 million. These programs enable universities to
            broaden their curricula; and increase faculty development, student research projects, and the number of new scholars recruited
            in the food and agricultural sciences. In addition, an increased number of graduate students, including minority graduate
            students, will be enrolled in the agricultural sciences. Funding is also proposed in the 2016 Budget, at $5.0 million, for
            the Veterinary Medical Services Act to provide incentives to hire Federal veterinarians to work in shortage areas.
         
         Public-Private Partnerships for Innovation Institutions._The 2016 Budget also includes $80 million to support public-private partnerships for Innovation Institutes that focus on emerging
            challenges to agriculture. The institutes will engage industry, leverage funding, and facilitate technology transfer. One
            institute will focus on biomanufacturing by building the scientific foundation, processes, and workforce capacity to move
            bio-energy and bio-based research from development to deployment and commercialization. The second institute will focus on
            nanocellulosics to effectively realize the potential of this nanomaterial, find commercial applications in a wide variety
            of industrial sectors, and support the President's National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI).

         The Cooperative Extension System, a national educational network, is a dynamic organization pledged to meeting the country's
            needs for research-based educational programs that will enable people to make practical decisions to improve their lives.
            To accomplish its mission, the Cooperative Extension System adjusts programs to meet the shifting needs and priorities of
            the people it serves.
         
         The non-formal educational network combines the expertise and resources of Federal, State, and local partners. The partners
            in this unique System are: a) The National Institute of Food and Agriculture at the U.S. Department of Agriculture; b) Extension
            professionals at land-grant universities throughout the United States and its territories; and c) Extension professionals
            in nearly all of the Nation's 3,144 counties and county equivalents. Thousands of paraprofessionals and nearly 3 million volunteers
            support this partnership and magnify its impact. Strong linkages with both public and private external groups are also crucial
            to the Cooperative Extension System's strength and vitality.
         
         Smith-Lever 3(b) and (c)._Programs supported with Smith-Lever 3(b) and (c) legislated formula funds are the major educational efforts central to the

         Native American Institutions Endowment Fund._The 2016 Budget includes $11.9 million, for an endowment for the 1994 land-grant institutions (the legislatively eligible
            Tribally controlled colleges) to strengthen the infrastructure of these institutions and develop Indian expertise for the
            food and agricultural sciences and businesses and their own communities. At the termination of each fiscal year, the Secretary
            withdraws the income from the endowment fund for the fiscal year, and after making adjustments for the cost of administering
            the fund, distributes the adjusted income on a formula basis to the 1994 land-grant institutions. An estimated $4.6 million
            in interest earned in 2015 will be available to the program in 2016.
         
         Hispanic-Serving Agricultural Colleges and Universities Endowment Fund._This endowment fund for Hispanic-Serving Agricultural Colleges and Universities will launch the production of skilled and
            marketable Hispanic student population for employment in the food and agriculture sector. Over the next ten years, the Endowment
            will lead to significant and measurable enhanced competence and marketability of Hispanic students in the food and agricultural
            sciences. The 2016 Budget includes $10.0 million for this proposed fund. Interest generated by this funding in 2016 will be
            available to the program in 2017.
         
         Other programs previously funded under this account are proposed under a consolidated National Institute of Food and Agriculture
            account.

         The Secretary of Agriculture established the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) on April 2, 1972, under the
            authority of Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1953 and other authorities. The mission of the Agency is to protect the health and
            value of U.S. agricultural and other animal and plant resources that are vulnerable to pests, diseases, predation, natural
            disasters, or inhumane treatment. APHIS performs this important work using three major areas of activity, as follows:
         
         Safeguarding and Emergency Preparedness/Response._APHIS monitors animal and plant health throughout the world and uses the information to set effective agricultural import
            policies to prevent the introduction of foreign plant and animal pests and diseases. Should a pest or disease enter the United
            States, APHIS works cooperatively with other Federal, State, Tribal and industry partners to conduct animal and plant health
            monitoring programs to rapidly diagnose them and determine if there is a need to establish new pest or disease management
            programs. APHIS, in conjunction with States, Tribes, industry, and other stakeholders, protects American agriculture by eradicating
            harmful pests and diseases or, where eradication is not feasible, by minimizing their economic impact. APHIS makes judicious
            use of resources by identifying instances when neither eradication nor management may be possible. The Agency monitors endemic
            pests and diseases through surveys to detect their locations and works with States, Tribes, and other programs to implement
            controls and conduct outreach to prevent the spread of pests and diseases into non-infested parts of the country. The Agency
            maintains a cadre of trained professionals prepared to respond immediately to potential animal and plant health emergencies.
            Program personnel investigate reports of suspected presence of foreign and exotic pests and diseases and work with partners
            to determine an appropriate course of action, including emergency action if necessary. Through its Wildlife Services program,
            APHIS protects agriculture from damage caused by animal predators through identification, demonstration, and application of
            the most appropriate methods of control. The Agency's regulations allow the benefits of genetic research to safely enter the
            marketplace, while protecting against the release of potentially harmful organisms into the environment. APHIS conducts diagnostic
            laboratory activities that support the Agency's veterinary disease and plant pest prevention, detection, control, and eradication
            programs. The Agency also provides and directs technology development to support animal and plant protection programs of the
            Agency and its cooperators at the State, Tribal, national, and international levels.
         
         Safe Trade and International Technical Assistance._Sanitary (animal) and phytosanitary (plant) (SPS) regulations can have a significant impact on market access for the United
            States as an exporter of agricultural products. APHIS plays a central role in resolving technical trade issues to ensure the
            smooth and safe movement of agricultural commodities into and out of the United States. APHIS helps to protect the United
            States from emerging animal and plant pests and diseases while meeting obligations under the World Trade Organization's SPS
            agreement by assisting developing countries in improving their safeguarding systems. APHIS develops and implements programs
            designed to identify and reduce agricultural pest and disease threats while they are still outside of U.S. borders, to enhance
            safe agricultural trade, and to strengthen emergency response preparedness.
         
         Animal Welfare._The Agency conducts regulatory activities to ensure the humane care and treatment of animals, including horses, as required
            by the Animal Welfare Act of 1966 as amended (7 U.S.C. 2131â2159), and the Horse Protection Act of 1970 as amended (15 U.S.C.
            1821â1831). These activities include inspection of certain establishments that handle animals intended for research, exhibition,
            and sale as pets, and monitoring of certain horse shows.APHIS' 2016 budget request of $855.8 million is a reduction of about $15.5 million from the 2015 enacted level.  The budget
               request includes an increase to implement activities as part of USDA's effort to address antimicrobial resistance, which causes
               concern for both human and animal health. It also includes an increase for predeparture inspections of passenger baggage and
               cargo moving from Hawaii and Puerto Rico to the mainland United States. This increase will allow APHIS to continue preventing
               damaging pests from traveling to the mainland United States from these island locations while allowing travel and commerce
               to continue smoothly.  Additionally, APHIS requests increases to enhance implementation of the Lacey Act, enhance surveillance
               for emerging and novel swine diseases, and continue supporting the development of tools to combat huanglongbing, or citrus
               greening. The Agency proposes increases to support these efforts, while proposing reductions in other areas. The reductions
               include programs where we have achieved success, such as nearing eradication for the cotton pests pink bollworm and boll weevil,
               and the Agency's enhanced ability to prepare for, detect, and respond to known risks related to avian health issues. The Agency
               requests other reductions for plant health programs to achieve a more equitable Federal cost-share rate for those programs.
               Additionally, the budget proposes reducing rabies activities outside the current barrier zone.

         The primary objective of the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is to ensure that meat, poultry, and egg products are
            safe, wholesome, unadulterated, and properly labeled and packaged, as required by the Federal Meat Inspection Act, the Poultry
            Products Inspection Act, and the Egg Products Inspection Act. In carrying out this mission, FSIS oversight responsibility
            covers a significant percentage of American spending on food. Providing adequate resources for Federal food safety agencies
            is a priority of the Administration. The 2016 Budget proposes $1.01 billion for inspection of meat, poultry and egg products,
            which is a $4.9 million decrease from the 2015 Enacted level. There is a decrease for implementation of new methods in poultry
            slaughter inspection. In addition, the budget proposes a performance based user fee, which will be charged to plants that
            have sample failures or require additional inspection activities due to regulatory non-compliance. 
         
         The President is again asking Congress to revive an authority enabling him to submit fast-track proposals to reorganize or
            consolidate Federal programs and agencies in order to reduce the size of Government or cut costs. The Budget includes a variety
            of proposed reforms across government designed to drive efficiency and accountability, prevent duplication, and make government
            work better and smarter for the American people. One of these reorganizations the President would propose with this authority
            is to consolidate the USDA's Food Safety Inspection Service and the food safety components of the Food and Drug Administration
            at HHS to create a new agency at HHS. This consolidation could deliver a "one-stop" shop for most of the issues that mean
            the most for consumers and industry and provide centralized leadership to allocate resources strategically across all food
            products. The Budget schedules for these agencies and programs continue to reflect them in their current alignment.

         The Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration's (GIPSA) Grain Regulatory Program promotes and enforces the accurate
            and uniform application of the United States Grain Standards Act (USGSA) and applicable provisions of the Agricultural Marketing
            Act of 1946. GIPSA identifies, evaluates, and implements new or improved techniques for measuring grain quality. GIPSA also
            establishes and updates testing and grading standards to facilitate the marketing of U.S. grain, oilseeds, and related products.
            GIPSA briefs foreign buyers, assesses foreign inspection and weighing techniques, and responds to foreign quality and quantity
            complaints.
         
         GIPSA's Packers and Stockyards Program (P&SP) promotes fair business practices, financial integrity, and competitive environments
            to market livestock, meat, and poultry. Through its oversight activities, including monitoring programs, reviews, and investigations,
            P&SP fosters fair competition, provides payment protection, and guards against deceptive and fraudulent trade practices that
            affect the movement and price of meat animals and their products. P&SP's work protects consumers and members of the livestock,
            meat, and poultry industries. P&SP enforces the Packers and Stockyards (P&S) Act, which prohibits unfair, deceptive, and unjust
            discriminatory practices by market agencies, dealers, stockyards, packers, swine contractors, and live poultry dealers in
            the livestock, meat packing, and poultry industries. The P&S Act provides an important safety net for livestock producers
            and poultry growers in rural America. P&SP conducts routine and ongoing regulatory inspections and audits to assess whether
            subject entities are operating in compliance with the Act, and conducts investigations of potential P&S Act violations identified
            by either industry complaints or previous GIPSA regulatory inspections. The 2016 Budget requests $44 million, an increase
            of $1.1 million above the 2015 enacted level to modernize laboratories, purchase necessary equipment and supplies, and fund
            other support expenses.

         The Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration (GIPSA) provides a uniform system for the inspection and weighing
            of grain. Services provided under this system are financed through a fee-supported revolving fund. Fee-supported programs
            include direct services, supervision activities and administrative functions. Direct services include official grain inspection
            and weighing by GIPSA employees at certain export ports as well as the inspection of U.S. grain shipped through Canada. GIPSA
            supervises the inspection and weighing activities performed by its own employees. FGIS supervises 53 official private and
            state agencies: 41 official private agencies and seven official state agencies that are designated to provide official inspection
            and/or weighing services in domestic markets; four official state agencies that are delegated to provide mandatory official

         Agricultural Marketing Service activities assist producers and handlers of agricultural commodities by providing a variety
            of marketing-related services. These services continue to become more complex as the volume of agricultural commodities increases,
            as greater numbers of new processed commodities are developed, and as the agricultural market structure undergoes extensive
            changes. Marketing changes include increased concentration in food retailing, direct buying, decentralization of processing,
            growth of interregional competition, vertical integration, and contract farming.
         
         The 2016 Budget requests $83,121,000 for Marketing Services, approximately $2 million above the 2015 enacted level. The individual
            Marketing Services activities include:
         
         Market news service._The market news program provides the agricultural community with information pertaining to the movement of agricultural products.
            This nationwide service provides daily reports on the supply, demand, and price of over 700 commodities on domestic and foreign
            markets.
         
         Inspection, grading and standardization._Nationally uniform standards of quality for agricultural products are established and applied to specific lots of products
            to: promote confidence between buyers and sellers; reduce hazards in marketing due to misunderstandings and disputes arising
            from the use of nonstandard descriptions; and encourage better preparation of uniform quality products for market. Grading
            services are provided on request for cotton and tobacco.Quarterly inspection of egg handlers and hatcheries is conducted to ensure the proper disposition of shell eggs unfit for
               human consumption.

         Market protection and promotion._This program consists of: 1) the research and promotion programs which are designed to improve the competitive position and
            expand markets for cotton, eggs and egg products, honey, pork, beef, dairy products, potatoes, watermelons, mushrooms, soybeans,
            fluid milk, popcorn, blueberries, avocados, lamb, mangos and peanuts; 2) the Federal Seed Act; and 3) the administration of
            the Capper-Volstead Act and the Agricultural Fair Practices Act.The Pesticide Data program develops comprehensive, statistically defensible information on pesticide residues in food to improve
               government dietary risk procedures.Federal seed inspectors conduct tests on seed samples to help ensure truthful labeling of agricultural and vegetable seeds
               sold in interstate commerce.The Capper-Volstead Act and the Agricultural Fair Practices Act protect producers against discriminatory practices by handlers,

         License fees are deposited in this special fund and are used to meet the costs of administering the Perishable Agricultural
            Commodities and the Produce Agency Acts (7 U.S.C. 491â497, 499aâ499s).
         
         The Acts are intended to ensure equitable treatment to farmers and others in the marketing of fresh and frozen fruits and
            vegetables. Commission merchants, dealers, and brokers handling these products in interstate and foreign commerce are licensed.
            Complaints of violations are investigated and violations dealt with by: a) informal agreements between the two parties; b)
            formal decisions involving payment of reparation awards; c) suspension or revocation of license and/or publication of the
            facts; or d) monetary penalty in lieu of license suspension or revocation.
         
         The Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act requires traders to have trust assets on hand to meet their obligations to fruit
            and vegetable suppliers. To preserve their trust and establish their rights ahead of other creditors, unpaid suppliers file
            notice with both the Department and their debtors that payment is due. The Act provides permanent authority to the Secretary
            of Agriculture to set license and reparation complaint filing fees.

         The Agriculture Appropriations Act of 1935 (7 U.S.C. 612c) established the Section 32 program which provides that 30 percent
            of U.S. Customs receipts for each calendar year are transferred to this account within the Department of Agriculture. The
            purpose of the Section 32 program is three-fold: to encourage the exportation of agricultural commodities and products, to
            encourage domestic consumption of agricultural products by diverting them, and to reestablish farmers' purchasing power by
            making payments in connection with the normal production of any agricultural commodity for domestic consumption. There is
            also a requirement that the funds available under Section 32 shall be principally devoted to perishable agricultural commodities
            (e.g., fruits and vegetables). Program funds are used for a variety of purposes in support of the three primary purposes specified
            in the program's authorizing legislation. Funds may be used to stabilize market conditions through purchasing surplus commodities
            which are in turn, distributed to nutrition assistance programs. Program funds are also used to purchase commodities that
            are distributed to schools as part of Child Nutrition Programs entitlements. Furthermore, funds are transferred to the Food
            and Nutrition Service for commodity purchases under section 6 of the National School Lunch Act and other authorities specified
            in the Child Nutrition Programs statutes.

         Expenses and refunds, inspection and grading of farm products._The Agricultural Marketing Service's commodity grading programs provide grading, examination, and certification services for
            a wide variety of fresh and processed food commodities using federally approved grade standards and purchase specifications.
            Commodities graded include poultry, livestock, meat, dairy products, and fresh and processed fruits and vegetables. These
            programs use official grade standards which reflect the relative quality of a particular food commodity based on laboratory
            testing and characteristics such as taste, color, weight, and physical condition. Producers voluntarily request grading and
            certification services which are provided on a fee for service basis.

         The Secretary of Agriculture is authorized by the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937, as amended under certain conditions
            to issue Federal milk marketing orders establishing minimum prices which handlers are required to pay for milk purchased from
            producers. There are currently 10 Federally-sanctioned milk market orders in operation.
         
         Market administrators are appointed by the Secretary and are responsible for carrying out the terms of specific marketing
            orders. Their operating expenses, partly financed by assessments on regulated handlers and partly by deductions from producers,
            are reported to the Agricultural Marketing Service. The majority of these funds are collected and deposited in checking and
            savings accounts in local banks, and disbursed directly by the market administrator. A portion of the funds collected are
            invested in securities such as certificates of deposit.
         
         Expenses of local offices are met from an administrative fund and a marketing service fund, which are prescribed in each order.
            The administrative fund is derived from prorated handler assessments. The marketing service fund of the individual order disseminates
            market information to producers who are not members of a qualified cooperative. It also provides for the verification of the
            weights, sampling, and testing of milk from these producers. The cost of these services is borne by such producers.
         
         The maximum rates for administrative assessment and for marketing services are set forth in each order and adjustments below
            these rates are made from time to time upon recommendations by the market administrator and upon approval of the Agricultural
            Marketing Service to provide reserves at about a six month operating level. Upon termination of any order, the statute provides
            for distributing the proceeds from net assets pro rata to contributing handlers or producers, as the case may be.

         The Risk Management Agency (RMA) was established under provisions of the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of
            1996 (1996 Act), P.L. 104â127, approved April 4, 1996. RMA is responsible for administration and oversight of the crop insurance
            program as authorized under the Federal Crop Insurance Act (7 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.) . This account includes resources to maintain
            ongoing operations of the Federal crop insurance program and other functions assigned to RMA such as risk management education.
            The 2016 Budget requests $76.946 million, of which $2.265 million will be utilized for additional compliance and other activities
            related to the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act (IPERA).
         
         The Federal crop insurance program is delivered through private insurance companies. Certain administrative expenses incurred
            by the companies are reimbursed through mandatory funding that is reflected in the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation Fund
            account. The funding in this account appropriately covers administrative activities for RMA where mandatory funding is not
            available and cannot be funded with funds from the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation Fund account.

         The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) is a wholly owned government corporation created February 16, 1938 (7 U.S.C.
            1501.). FCIC is administered by the Risk Management Agency (RMA), and provides economic stability to agriculture through crop
            insurance. The Federal crop insurance program includes products providing crop yield and revenue insurance, pasture, rangeland
            forage, and livestock insurance, as well as other educational and risk mitigation initiatives/tools. The Federal crop insurance
            program provides farmers with a risk management program that protects against agricultural production losses due to unavoidable
            causes such as drought, excessive moisture, hail, wind, lightning, and insects. In addition to these causes, revenue insurance
            programs are available to protect against loss of revenue.  Federal crop insurance is available for more than 350 different
            commodities in over 3,066 counties covering all 50 states, and Puerto Rico. For the 2014 Crop Year, there were 1.2 million
            policies written with over $10 billion in premiums.
         
         Federal crop insurance policies are sold and serviced by about 20 private crop insurance companies that share in the risk
            on the policies they sell under terms set out by USDA's Standard Reinsurance Agreement (SRA). The risk sharing is designed
            to be in favor of the companies, not one for one with the government. In most years the companies realize underwriting gains.
            In bad years, the companies' underwriting losses are muted because the government takes on more of the risk and ultimately
            back-stops the program after a certain level of loss. Currently, the government provides companies, on average, $1.1 billion
            a year in underwriting gains. In addition, the government pays the companies an Administrative and Operating (A&O) subsidy
            to offset the costs incurred to carry out the program. They are reimbursed on average for about 15 percent of the premiums
            sold. The government currently pays $1.4 billion annually for A&O. For the 2016 Budget, the payments to the companies are
            projected to be $2.4 billion in combined subsidies. 
         
         The 2016 Budget requests funding to support $11.7 billion in obligations. For the Budget, 2015 and 2016 funding level estimates
            as well as the outyears are based on a 1.0 loss ratio, which is the statutory target loss ratio used for estimating future
            crop insurance costs.
         
         The minimum level of coverage is Catastrophic (CAT) crop insurance, which compensates the farmer for losses exceeding 50 percent
            of the individual's average yield at 55 percent of the expected market price; the premium is entirely subsidized. The cost
            to the producer for CAT coverage is an annual administrative fee of $300 per crop per county.
         
         Additional coverage is available to producers and is commonly referred to as "buy-up" coverage. Policyholders can elect to
            be paid up to 100 percent of the market price established by FCIC for each unit of production their actual yield is less than
            the individual yield guarantee. Premium rates for additional coverage depend on the level of protection selected and vary
            from crop to crop and county to county. They also depend on the producer's average production history (APH). Producers are
            assessed a fee of $30 per crop, per county, in addition to a share of the premium. The additional levels of insurance coverage
            are more attractive to farmers due to availability of optional units, other policy provisions not available with CAT coverage,
            and the ability to obtain a level of protection that permits them to use crop insurance as loan collateral and to achieve
            greater financial security.
         
         Revenue protection for specified products is provided by extending traditional crop insurance protection, based on actual
            production history, to include price variability based on futures market prices. Producers have a choice of revenue protection
            (protection against loss of revenue caused by low prices, low yields, or a combination of both) or yield protection (protection
            for production losses only) within one Basic Provision and the applicable Crop Provision.
         
         Currently for revenue protection, the farmer can opt to cover the projected or the harvest price. Traditional revenue insurance
            only protects against a projected price, where the farmer is guaranteed a price at the time of planting. Revenue coverage
            that protects the price at the time of harvest guarantees the price to the farmer for the higher of the projected price or
            the harvest price. This additional revenue protection allows farmers to hedge against low prices at harvest. The harvest price
            protection policies are more costly than traditional revenue coverage and therefore more heavily subsidized by the government.
            Almost all farmers choose the harvest price option because taxpayers pay such a large portion of the extra premium.
         
         A crop insurance policy also contains coverage for when a producer is prevented from planting their crop due to weather and
            other perils. When an insured producer is unable to plant their crop within the planting time period because of excessive
            drought or moisture, they may file a prevented planting claim, which pays a portion of their full coverage level. It is optional
            for the producer to plant a second crop on the acres. If the producer does, the prevented planting claim on the first crop
            is reduced and the producer's Average Production History (APH) is updated to incorporate that year. If the producer does not
            plant a second crop, they get their full prevented planting claim, and their APH is held harmless for premium calculation
            purposes. USDA recently conducted a study to determine if the prevented planting costs were accurately priced for all crops
            and has considered policy changes for prevented planting due to the study's findings.
         
         The following table illustrates Crop Year statistics as of September 30, 2013. Crop Year is generally all activity for crops
            from July 1âJune 30 of a given year. For the 2014 Crop Year the data includes actuals through December of 2014.

         Financing._The Corporation is authorized under the Federal Crop Insurance Act, as amended, to use funds from the issuance of capital
            stock which provides working capital for the Corporation.Receipts, which are for deposit to this fund, mainly come from premiums paid by farmers. The principal payments from this
               fund are for indemnities to insured farmers, and administrative expenses for approved insurance providers.Premium subsidies are authorized by section 508(b) of the Federal Crop Insurance Act, as amended, and are received through
               appropriations.The following table illustrates premium subsidies and indemnities for all crop years as expected to occur during the period
               of October 1-September 30 for fiscal years 2015 and 2016 .

         The 2016 Budget includes two proposals that are designed to optimize the current crop insurance program so that it will continue
            to provide a quality safety net at a lower cost: 
         
         1. Reduce premium subsidy by 10 percentage points for revenue coverage that includes additional coverage for the price at
            harvest. Over 10 years this proposal is expected to save the government $14.6 billion, of which 9 percent will be from subsidies
            that the government pays the insurance companies. 
         
         2. Reform the prevented planting program by: adjusting payment rates for prevented planting to reflect rates suggested in
            a recent USDA study, eliminating prevented planting optional +5 and +10 coverage, and requiring a 60 percent transitional
            yield be applied to the producer's Actual Production History (APH) who receives a prevented planting payment. This is expected
            to save $1.4 billion over 10 years and improve the accuracy of the prevented planting coverage as well as promote additional
            food production.

         The Farm Service Agency (FSA) was established October 3, 1994, pursuant to the Federal Crop Insurance Reform and Department
            of Agriculture Reorganization Act of 1994, P.L. 103â354. The Department of Agriculture Reorganization Act of 1994 was amended
            on April 4, 1996, by the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996 (1996 Act), P.L. 104â127. The FSA administers
            a variety of activities, such as farm income support programs through various loans and payments; the Conservation Reserve
            Program (CRP); the Emergency Conservation Program; the Hazardous Waste Management Program; the Commodity Operation Programs
            including the warehouse examination function; farm ownership, farm operating, emergency disaster, and other loan programs;
            and the Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP), which provides crop loss protection for growers of many crops for
            which crop insurance is not available. FSA also assists in the administration of several conservation cost-share programs
            financed by the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC), including the Grasslands Reserve Program (GRP). In addition, FSA currently
            provides certain administrative support services to the Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) and to the Risk Management Agency
            (RMA). The authority for most FSA programs is continued in The Agricultural Act of 2014, the 2014 Farm Bill.
         
         This consolidated administrative expenses account includes funds to cover expenses of programs administered by, and functions
            assigned to, FSA. The funds consist of a direct appropriation, transfers from program loan accounts under credit reform procedures,
            user fees, and advances and reimbursements from other sources. This is a consolidated account for administrative expenses
            of national, regional, State, and county offices. The 2016 Budget requests a total of $1.5 billion for administrative expenses.
         
         USDA's FSA, Natural Resources Conservation Service, and Rural Development offices act as separate franchises, with offices
            often located adjacent to each other. Prior efforts to improve the efficiency of USDA's county-based offices have resulted
            in significant co-location and introduction of new information technology to simplify customer transactions.
         
         Farm programs._These programs provide an economic safety net through farm income support to eligible producers, cooperatives, and associations
            to help improve the economic stability and viability of the agricultural sector and to ensure the production of an adequate
            and reasonably priced supply of food and fiber. Activities of the Agency include providing price loss coverage and agricultural
            risk coverage, providing marketing assistance loans and loan deficiency payments enabling recipients to continue farming operations
            without marketing their product immediately after harvest, and providing a financial safety net to eligible producers when
            natural disasters adversely affect their farming operation. These programs range from covering losses of grazing under the
            Livestock Forage Disaster Program; orchard trees and nursery to help replant or rehabilitate trees under the Tree Assistance
            Program; production under the Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program; livestock under the Livestock Indemnity Program;
            and livestock, honeybees and farm raised fish for losses that are not covered under the previously listed programs under the
            Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honeybees, and Farm Raised Fish.Farm program activities include the following functions dealing with the administration of programs carried out through the
               farmer committee system of the FSA: (a) developing program regulations and procedures; (b) collecting and compiling basic
               data for individual farms; (c) establishing individual farm base acres for farm planting history; (d) notifying producers
               of established base acres and farm planting histories; (e) conducting referendums and certifying results; (f) accepting farmer
               certifications and checking compliance for specific purposes; (g) processing commodity loan documents and issuing checks;
               (h) processing price loss coverage and agricultural risk coverage payments and issuing checks; (i) certifying payment eligibility
               and monitoring payment limitations; and (j) processing farm storage facility loans and issuing checks.
         Conservation and environment._These programs assist agricultural producers and landowners in implementing practices to conserve soil, water, air, and wildlife
            resources on America's farmland and ranches to help protect the human and natural environment. Objectives of the Agency include
            improving environmental quality, protecting natural resources, and enhancing habitat for fish and wildlife, including threatened
            and endangered species; providing Emergency Conservation Program funding for farmers and ranchers to rehabilitate damaged
            farmland and for carrying out emergency conservation measures during periods of severe drought or flooding; protecting the
            public health of communities through implementation of the Hazardous Waste Management Program; and implementing contracting,
            financial reporting, and other administrative operations processes. These activities include: (a) processing producer requests
            for conservation cost-sharing and issuing conservation reserve rental payments; and (b) transferring funds to the Natural
            Resources Conservation Service and other agencies for other conservation programs.
         
         Commodity operations._This activity includes: (a) overall management of CCC-owned commodities; (b) purchasing commodities; (c) donating commodities;
            (d) selling commodities; (e) accounting for loans and commodities; and (f) commercial warehouse activities, which include
            improving the effectiveness and efficiency of FSA's commodity acquisition, procurement, storage, and distribution activities
            to support domestic and international food assistance programs and administering the U.S. Warehouse Act (USWA). FSA provides
            for the examination of warehouses licensed under the USWA and non-licensed warehouses storing CCC-owned or pledged commodities.
            Examiners perform periodic examinations of the facilities and the warehouse records to ensure protection of depositors against
            potential losses of the stored commodities and to ensure compliance with the USWA and any CCC storage agreements.
         
         Farm loans (reimbursable)._Provides for administering the direct and guaranteed loan programs covered under the Agricultural Credit Insurance Fund (ACIF).
            Objectives of the Agency include improving the economic viability of farmers and ranchers, reducing losses in direct loan
            programs, responding to loan making and servicing requests, and maximizing financial and technical assistance to underserved
            groups. Activities include reviewing applications, servicing the loan portfolio, and providing technical assistance and guidance
            to borrowers. Funding for farm loan administrative expenses is transferred to this consolidated account from the ACIF. Appropriations
            representing subsidy amounts necessary to support the individual program loan levels under Federal Credit Reform are made
            to the ACIF account.
         
         Other reimbursable activities._FSA collects a fee or is reimbursed for performing a variety of services for other Federal agencies, CCC, industry, and others,
            including certain administrative support services for the Risk Management Agency and the Foreign Agricultural Service, and
            for county office services provided to Federal and non-Federal entities, including a variety of services to producers.

         This grant program is authorized by Title V of the Agricultural Credit Act of 1987, P.L. 100â233, as amended. Originally designed
            to address agricultural credit disputes, the program was expanded by the Federal Crop Insurance Reform and Department of Agriculture
            Reorganization Act of 1994 (P.L. 103â354) to include other agricultural issues such as wetland determinations, conservation
            compliance, rural water loan programs, grazing on National Forest System lands, and pesticide use. Grants are made to States
            whose agricultural mediation programs have been certified by the Farm Service Agency. A grant will not exceed 79 percent of
            the total fiscal year funds that a qualifying State requires to operate and administer its agricultural mediation program.
            In no case will the total amount of a grant exceed $500,000 annually. Current authority for the program under P.L. 113â079
            expires September 30, 2018. The 2016 Budget requests $3.4 million for the program.

         The Claims Resolution Act of 2010, P.L. 111â291 that was signed into law on December 8, 2010 provides funding to settle claims
            of prior discrimination brought by black farmers against the Department of Agriculture. These funds supplement funding previously
            provided to USDA for this purpose by section 14012 of P.L. 110â246. Claimants that suffered discrimination between 1989 and
            1997 and submitted a late-filing request can seek fast-track payments of up to $50,000 plus debt relief, or choose a longer,
            more rigorous review and documentation process for damages of up to $250,000. The actual value of awards may be reduced based
            on the total amount of funds made available and the number of successful claims.

         The Consolidated and further Continuing Appropriations Act of 2015 (Public Law 113â235) appropriated $1.996 million to assist
            geographically disadvantaged farmers and ranchers pursuant to the Agricultural Act of 2014, the 2014 Farm Bill. The 2014 Farm
            Bill re-authorized the Reimbursement Transportation Cost Payment Program for Geographically Disadvantaged Farmers and Ranchers
            (RTCP) program for FY 2012 and each succeeding fiscal year subject to appropriated funding. The purpose of RTCP is to offset
            a portion of the higher cost of transporting agricultural inputs and commodities over long distances. This program assists
            farmers and ranchers residing outside the 48 contiguous states that are at a competitive disadvantage when transporting agriculture
            products to the market. RTCP benefits are calculated based on the costs incurred by the producer for transportation of the
            agricultural commodity or inputs during a fiscal year, subject to an $8,000 per producer cap per fiscal year. RTCP enrollments
            for FY 2014 began on July 21, 2014, and ended on September 8, 2014. Payments for FY 2014 signup will be disbursed in FY 2015.
            No funding is requested in the 2016 Budget.

         The Reforestation Pilot Program's purpose is to demonstrate the use of new technologies that increase the rate of growth of
            re-forested hardwood trees on private non-industrial forest lands, enrolling lands on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico that
            were damaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The funding level for 2015 is $600,000. The 2016 Budget proposes no funding for
            this program.

         The Emergency Conservation Program (ECP) was authorized by the Agricultural Credit Act of 1978 (16 U.S.C. 2201â05). It provides
            funds for sharing the cost of emergency measures to deal with cases of severe damage to farmlands and rangelands resulting
            from natural disasters. During 2014, 36 States participated in ECP, with new or continued activity from the previous year,
            involving approximately $22.8 million in cost-share and technical assistance funds outlays. In FY 2014, no ECP supplemental
            funding was provided. The Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act of 2015, signed December 15, 2014, provides
            $9.216 million for ECP for necessary expenses resulting from major disasters declared pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford and
            Emergency Assistance Act.  The 2016 Budget does not propose funding for this program.

         The Emergency Forest Restoration Program (EFRP) provides payments to eligible owners of non-industrial private forest (NIPF)
            for implementation of emergency measures to restore land damaged by a natural disaster. During 2014, 19 states participated
            in EFRP with new or continued activity from the previous year, involving approximately $1.9 million in cost-share and technical
            assistance fund outlays. In FY 2014, no EFRP supplemental funding was provided. The Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations
            Act of 2015, signed December 15, 2014, provides $3.203 million for EFRP for necessary expenses resulting from major disasters
            declared pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act. The 2016 Budget does not include
            funding for EFRP.

         The Grassroots Source Water Protection Program (GSWPP) is a joint project by USDA's Farm Service Agency and the nonprofit
            National Rural Water Association. It is designed to help prevent source water pollution in States through voluntary practices
            installed by producers at the local level. GSWPP uses onsite technical assistance capabilities of each State rural water association
            that operates a wellhead or groundwater protection program in the State. State rural water associations can deliver assistance
            in developing source water protection plans within priority watersheds for the common goal of preventing the contamination
            of drinking water supplies. The Agricultural Act of 2014, the 2014 Farm Bill, continues the authority for this program. The
            2015 funding level provides $5.5 million for GSWPP. The 2016 Budget proposes no funding for this program.

         The Agricultural Credit Insurance Fund program account's loans are authorized by Title III of the Consolidated Farm and Rural
            Development Act, as amended.
         
         This program account includes subsidies to provide direct and guaranteed loans for farm ownership, farm operating, conservation,
            and emergency loans to individuals. This account also includes funding for individual development account grants which is
            proposed at $2.5 million in the 2016 Budget. Indian tribes and tribal corporations are eligible for Indian land acquisition
            loans, while individual Native Americans are eligible for loans for the purchase of highly fractionated Indian lands. Boll
            weevil eradication loans are available to eliminate the cotton boll weevil pest from infested areas. The 2015 estimated level
            is $78.7 million for loan subsidies, and the 2016 Budget requests $72.1 million for loan subsidies and grants, which is a
            decrease of $6.6 million. However, the 2016 Budget requests a program level increase of $2.5 million over 2015 loan levels,
            due to the funding for individual development account grants. Per the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records
            for this program the subsidy costs associated with the direct loans obligated and loan guarantees committed in 1992 and beyond
            (including credit sales of acquired property), as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts are
            estimated on a present value basis; the administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis. For administrative costs, the
            2015 estimated level provides $314.9 million, and the 2016 Budget requests $317.9 million.
         
         Under the Dairy Indemnity Program, payments are made to farmers and manufacturers of dairy products who are directed to remove
            their milk or milk products from commercial markets because they contain residues of chemicals that have been registered and
            approved by the Federal Government, other chemicals, nuclear radiation, or nuclear fallout. Indemnification may also be paid
            for cows producing such milk. In 2014, $1.1 million was paid to producers who filed claims under the program. The 2016 Budget
            requests such sums as may be necessary, which are estimated to be $500,000 for this program in both 2015 and 2016.

         The Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) was created to stabilize, support, and protect farm income and prices; help maintain
            balanced and adequate supplies of agricultural commodities, their products, foods, feeds, and fibers; and help in their orderly
            distribution.
         
         The Corporation's capital stock of $100 million is held by the U.S. Treasury. Under present law, up to $30 billion may be
            borrowed from the U.S. Treasury to finance operations. Current, indefinite appropriation authority is requested to cover all
            net realized losses. Appropriations to the Corporation for net realized losses have no effect on budget authority, as they
            are used to repay debt directly with the Treasury.
         
         The Agricultural Act of 2014, the 2014 Farm Bill, P.L. 113â79, was signed by the President on February 7, 2014. The Act repeals
            certain programs, continues some programs with modifications, and authorizes several new programs. Most of these programs
            are authorized and funded through 2018.
         
            BUDGET ASSUMPTIONS
         The following general assumptions form the basis for the Corporation's 2015 and 2016 budget estimates: (a) national income
            will remain fairly constant both in 2015 and 2016 from the present level; (b) 2015 crop production will decrease from 2014
            crop levels for corn and soybeans, but will rise for wheat; (c) generally, exports of agricultural commodities in 2015 are
            expected to be higher than 2014 levels; and (d) yields for the 2015 crops are based on recent averages adjusted for trends.
            It is difficult to accurately forecast requirements for the year ending September 30, 2016, since the projections are subject
            to complex and unpredictable factors such as weather, other factors which affect the volume of production of crops not yet
            planted, feed, food, and energy needs here and overseas, and available dollar exchange.
         
            PROGRAMS OF THE CORPORATIONPrice support, marketing assistance loans, and related stabilization programs.âThe Corporation conducts programs to support farm income and prices and stabilize the market for agricultural commodities.
            Price support is provided to producers of agricultural commodities through loans, purchases, payments, and other means.
         
         Price support is mandatory for sugar. Marketing assistance loans are mandatory for wheat, feed grains, oilseeds, upland cotton,
            peanuts, rice, and pulse crops. Loans are also required to be made for sugar, honey, wool, mohair, and extra-long staple cotton.
         
         One method of providing support is loans to and purchases from producers. With limited exceptions, loans made on commodities
            are nonrecourse. The commodities serve as collateral for the loan and on maturity the producer may deliver or forfeit such
            collateral to satisfy the loan obligation without further payment.
         
         Direct purchases may be made from processors as well as producers, depending on the commodity involved. Also, special purchases
            are made under various laws for the removal of surpluses; for example, the Act of August 19, 1958, as amended, and section
            416 of the Agricultural Act of 1949, as amended.
         
         Commodity Payment Programs.âThe 2014 Farm Bill repealed Direct Payments, Counter-Cyclical Payments and Average Crop Revenue
            Election Payments and established two new programs, PLC and ARC.
         
         Price Loss Coverage (PLC).âPayments are issued when the effective price of a covered commodity is less than the respective reference price for that
            commodity established in the statute. The payment is equal to 85 percent of the base acres of the covered commodity times
            the difference between the reference price and the effective price times the program payment yield for the covered commodity.
         
         Agricultural Risk Coverage (ARC).âThere are two types: County ARC and Individual ARC.
         
         County ARC: Payments are issued when the actual county crop revenue of a covered commodity is less than the ARC county guarantee
            for the covered commodity and are based on county data, not farm data. The ARC county guarantee equals 86 percent of the previous
            5-year average national farm price, excluding the years with the highest and lowest price (the ARC guarantee price), times
            the 5-year average county yield, excluding the years with the highest and lowest yield (the ARC county guarantee yield). Both
            the guarantee and actual revenue are computed using base acres, not planted acres. The payment is equal to 85 percent of the
            base acres of the covered commodity times the difference between the county guarantee and the actual county crop revenue for
            the covered commodity. Payments may not exceed 10 percent of the benchmark county revenue (the ARC guarantee price times the
            ARC county guarantee yield).
         
         Individual ARC: Payments are issued when the actual individual crop revenues, summed across all covered commodities on the
            farm, are less than ARC individual guarantees summed across those covered commodities on the farm. The farm for individual
            ARC purposes is the sum of the producer's interest in all ARC farms in the State. The farm's ARC individual guarantee equals
            86 percent of the farm's individual benchmark guarantee, which is defined as the ARC guarantee price times the 5-year average
            individual yield, excluding the years with the highest and lowest yields, and summing across all crops on the farm. The actual
            revenue is computed in a similar fashion, with both the guarantee and actual revenue computed using planted acreage on the
            farm. The individual ARC payment equals: (a) 65 percent of the sum of the base acres of all covered commodities on the farm,
            times (b) the difference between the individual guarantee revenue and the actual individual crop revenue across all covered
            commodities planted on the farm. Payments may not exceed 10 percent of the individual benchmark revenue.
         
         Base Reallocation and Yield Updates.âOwners of farms that participate in PLC or ARC programs for the 2014â2018 crops have a one-time opportunity to: (1) maintain
            the farm's 2013 bases through 2018; or (2) reallocate base acres (excluding cotton bases). Covered commodities include wheat,
            oats, barley, corn, grain sorghum, rice, soybeans, sunflower seed, rapeseed, canola, safflower, flaxseed, mustard seed, crambe
            and sesame seed, dry peas, lentils, small chickpeas, and large chickpeas. Upland cotton is no longer considered a covered
            commodity, but the upland cotton base acres on the farm are renamed "generic" base acres. Producers may receive payments on
            generic base acres if those acres are planted to a covered commodity.
         
         A producer also has the opportunity to update the counter-cyclical payment yield for each covered commodity based on 90 percent
            of the farm's 2008â2012 average yield per planted acre, excluding any year when no acreage was planted to the covered commodity.
            Program payment yields are used to determine payment amounts for the Price Loss Coverage program.
         
         Election Required.âAll of the producers on a farm must make a one-time, unanimous election of: (1) PLC/County ARC on a covered-commodity-by-covered-commodity
            basis; or (2) Individual ARC for all covered commodities on the farm. If the producers on the farm elect PLC/County ARC, the
            producers must also make a one-time election to select which base acres on the farm are enrolled in PLC and which base acres
            are enrolled in County ARC. Alternatively, if Individual ARC is selected, then every covered commodity on the farm must participate
            in Individual ARC.
         
         The election between ARC and PLC is made in 2014 and a producer cannot switch to ARC (from PLC), or vice versa, in subsequent
            years. If an election is not made in 2014, the farm may not participate in either PLC or ARC for the 2014 crop year and the
            producers on the farm are deemed to have elected PLC for subsequent crop years, but must still enroll their farm to receive
            coverage. If the sum of the base acres on a farm is 10 acres or less, the producer on that farm may not receive PLC or ARC
            payments, unless the producer is a socially disadvantaged farmer or rancher or is a limited resource farmer or rancher. Payments
            for PLC and ARC are issued after the end of the respective crop year, but not before October 1.
         
         Producers enrolling in PLC, and who also participate in the Federal crop insurance program, may, beginning with the 2015 crop,
            make the annual choice whether to purchase additional crop insurance coverage called the Supplemental Coverage Option (SCO).
            SCO provides the producer the option of covering a portion of his or her crop insurance deductible and is based on expected
            county yields or revenue. The cost of SCO is subsidized and indemnities are determined by the yield or revenue loss for the
            county or area. SCO is not available to producers who enroll in ARC.
         
         Adjusted Gross Income.âAdjusted gross income (AGI) provisions have been simplified and modified. Producers whose average AGI exceeds $900,000 during
            a crop, fiscal, or program year are not eligible to participate in most programs administered by FSA and the Natural Resources
            Conservation Service (NRCS). Previous AGI provisions distinguished between on-farm and nonfarm AGI.
         
         Payment Limitations.âThe total amount of payments received, directly and indirectly, by a person or legal entity (except joint ventures or general
            partnerships) for Price Loss Coverage, Agricultural Risk Coverage, marketing loan gains, and loan deficiency payments (other
            than for peanuts), may not exceed $125,000 per crop year. A person or legal entity that receives payments for peanuts has
            a separate $125,000 payment limitation.
         
         Cotton transition payments are limited to $40,000 per year. For the livestock disaster programs, a total $125,000 annual limitation
            applies for payments under the Livestock Indemnity Program, the Livestock Forage Program, and the Emergency Assistance for
            Livestock, Honey Bees and Farm-Raised Fish program. A separate $125,000 annual limitation applies to payments under the Tree
            Assistance Program.
         
         Cotton Transition.âUpland cotton is the only "covered commodity" that is no longer eligible to participate in these programs, but rather, becomes
            eligible for the new Stacked Income Protection Plan (STAX) offered by the Risk Management Agency (RMA). Until STAX becomes
            available, upland cotton is eligible for transition payments made by FSA for 2014 and 2015 crops.
         
         For the 2014 crop year, transition payments are provided to cotton producers on farms that had cotton base acres in 2013.
            For the 2015 crop year, transition payments will only be offered in counties where STAX is unavailable. The transition payment
            is equal to 60 and 36.5 percent of the farm's 2013 cotton base acres for 2014 and 2015, respectively, times the farm's program
            payment yield times the transition rate provided in the statute.
         
         Marketing Assistance Loans (MALs) and Sugar Loans.âThe 2014 Farm Bill extends the authority for sugar loans for the 2014 through 2018 crop years and nonrecourse marketing
            assistance loans (MALs) and loan deficiency payment (LDPs) for the 2014â2018 crops of wheat, corn, grain sorghum, barley,
            oats, upland cotton, extra-long staple cotton (eligible for loans only), long grain rice, medium grain rice, soybeans, other
            oilseeds (including sunflower seed, rapeseed, canola, safflower, flaxseed, mustard seed, crambe and sesame seed), dry peas,
            lentils, small chickpeas, large chickpeas, graded and nongraded wool, mohair, honey, unshorn pelts and peanuts. Availability
            of loans for some commodities may be affected by appropriations language. Provisions are mostly unchanged from the 2008 farm
            bill, except marketing loan gains and loan deficiency payments are subject to payment limitations.
         
            DAIRY PROGRAMS
         The Dairy Margin Protection Program. This program replaced the Milk Income Loss Contract program and will be effective from September 1, 2014, through December
            31, 2018. The margin protection program offers dairy producers: (1) catastrophic coverage, at no cost to the producer, other
            than an annual $100 administrative fee; and (2) various levels of buy-up coverage. Catastrophic coverage provides payments
            to participating producers when the national dairy production margin is less than $4.00 per hundredweight (cwt). The national
            dairy production margin is the difference between the all-milk price and average feed costs. Producers may purchase buy-up
            coverage that provides payments when margins are between $4.00 and $8.00 per cwt. To participate in buy-up coverage, a producer
            must pay a premium that varies with the level of protection the producer elects. In addition, the 2014 Farm Bill creates the
            Dairy Product Donation Program. This program is triggered in times of low operating margins for dairy producers, and requires
            USDA to purchase dairy products for donation to food banks and other feeding programs.
         
         Dairy Indemnity Payment Program (DIPP).âThe program provides payments to dairy producers when a public regulatory agency directs them to remove their raw milk from
            the commercial market because it has been contaminated by pesticides and other residues.
         
            OTHER PROGRAMSNoninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP).âNAP has been expanded to include buy-up protection, similar to buy-up provisions offered under the federal crop insurance
            program. Producers may elect coverage for each individual crop between 50 and 65 percent, in 5 percent increments, at 100
            percent of the average market price. Producers also pay a fixed premium equal to 5.25 percent of the liability. The waiver
            of service fees has been expanded from just limited resource farmers to also include beginning farmers and socially disadvantaged
            farmers. The premiums for buy-up coverage are reduced by 50 percent for those same farmers. NAP coverage is expanded to include
            crops grown expressly for the purpose of producing a feedstock for renewable biofuel, renewable electricity, or biobased products.
            NAP is also made available to producers that suffered a loss to a 2012 annual fruit crop grown on a bush or tree in a county
            declared a disaster by the Secretary due to a freeze or frost. Grazing land is not eligible for buy-up coverage.
         
         Biomass Crop Assistance Program (BCAP).âBCAP provides incentives to farmers, ranchers and forest landowners to establish, cultivate and harvest eligible biomass
            for heat, power, bio-based products, research and advanced biofuels. Crop producers and bioenergy facilities can team together
            to submit proposals to USDA for selection as a BCAP project area. BCAP has been extended through 2018 and is funded at $25
            million per fiscal year, except for FY 2015 which is capped at $23 million.
         
         Feedstock Flexibility Program (FFP).âFFP is continued through fiscal year 2018. Congress authorized the FFP in the 2008 Farm Bill, allowing for the purchase
            of sugar to be sold for the production of bioenergy in order to avoid forfeitures of sugar loan collateral under the Sugar
            Program.
         
         Bio-Based Fuel Production.âSection 5(e) of the CCC Charter Act authorizes CCC to take action to increase the consumption of agricultural commodities
            by "...aiding in the development of new and additional markets, marketing facilities, and uses for such commodities." Under
            this authority, CCC will make available up to $170 million to subsidize the production of bio-based jet fuel. Because there
            is no existing viable commercial source for the large-scale production of such fuel, CCC has entered into an agreement with
            the Department of Energy and the Navy to assist in the development of this product.  CCC expects to outlay $60 million for
            this purpose in 2015.
         
            DISASTER PROGRAMSThe following four disaster programs were authorized by the 2008 Farm Bill under the USDA Supplemental Disaster Assistance
            program. These programs were re-authorized under CCC and extended indefinitely (beyond the horizon of the 2014 Farm Bill).
            The programs are made retroactive to Oct. 1, 2011. Producers are no longer required to purchase crop insurance or NAP coverage
            to be eligible for these programs (the risk management purchase requirement) as mandated by the 2008 Farm Bill.
         
         Livestock Forage Disaster Program (LFP).âLFP provides compensation to eligible livestock producers that have suffered grazing losses due to drought or fire on land
            that is native or improved pastureland with permanent vegetative cover or that is planted specifically for grazing. LFP payments
            for drought are equal to 60 percent of the monthly feed cost for up to 5 months, depending upon the severity of the drought.
            LFP payments for fire on federally managed rangeland are equal to 50 percent of the monthly feed cost for the number of days
            the producer is prohibited from grazing the managed rangeland, not to exceed 180 calendar days.
         
         Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP).âLIP provides benefits to livestock producers for livestock deaths in excess of normal mortality caused by adverse weather
            or by attacks by animals reintroduced into the wild by the Federal Government. LIP payments are equal to 75 percent of the
            average fair market value of the livestock.
         
         Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honey Bees, and Farm-Raised Fish (ELAP).âELAP provides emergency assistance to eligible producers of livestock, honeybees and farm-raised fish for losses due to
            disease (including cattle tick fever), adverse weather, or other conditions, such as blizzards and wildfires, not covered
            by LFP and LIP. Total payments are capped at $20 million in a fiscal year.
         
         Tree Assistance Program (TAP).âTAP provides financial assistance to qualifying orchardists and nursery tree growers to replant or rehabilitate eligible
            trees, bushes, and vines damaged by natural disasters.
         
            FOREIGN ASSISTANCE PROGRAMSMarket Access Program (MAP).â-Under the MAP, CCC Funds are used to reimburse participating organizations for a portion of the costs of carrying out overseas
            marketing and promotional activities. The 2014 Farm Bill continues the authority for the MAP program with annual funding of
            $200 million for 2014â2018.
         
         Foreign Market Development Cooperator Program (FMD) and Quality Samples Program.âUnder the FMD program, cost-share assistance is provided to nonprofit commodity and agricultural trade associations to support
            overseas market development activities that are designed to remove long-term impediments to increased U.S. trade. CCC will
            fund the Quality Samples Program at an authorized annual level of $2.5 million. Under this initiative, samples of U.S. agricultural
            products will be provided to foreign importers to promote a better understanding and appreciation for the high quality of
            U.S. products.
         
         Technical Assistance for Specialty Crops and Emerging Markets.âEmerging Markets is extended through 2018. Technical Assistance for Specialty Crops is extended through 2018 with annual
            funding of $9 million for each fiscal year.
         
         The Bill Emerson Humanitarian Trust.âThe Bill Emerson Humanitarian Trust (BEHT) is a commodity and/or monetary reserve designed to ensure that the United States
            can meet its international food aid commitments. Assets of the Trust can be released any time the Administrator of the U.S.
            Agency for International Development determines that PL 480 Title II is inadequate to meet those needs in any fiscal year.
            When a release from the Trust is authorized, the Trust's assets cover all commodity costs associated with the release. All
            non-commodity costs, including ocean freight charges; internal transportation, handling, and storage overseas; and certain
            administrative costs are paid by CCC. The 2014 Farm Bill extends the authorization to replenish the BEHT through 2018.
         
            CONSERVATION PROGRAMSConservation Reserve Program (CRP).âThe 2014 Farm Bill extends the authorization of CRP with modifications. The acreage cap is gradually lowered to 24 million
            acres for fiscal years 2017 and 2018. The requirement to reduce rental payments under emergency haying and grazing is eliminated.
            Rental payment reductions of not less than 25 percent are required for managed haying and grazing. Producers are also given
            the opportunity for an "early-out" from their CRP contracts, but only in fiscal year 2015. The rental payment portion of the
            Grassland Reserve Program enrollment has been incorporated into the CRP.
         
         The Transition Incentive Program (TIP).âThe 2014 Farm Bill allows for the transition of CRP land to a beginning or socially disadvantaged farmer or rancher so land
            can be returned to sustainable grazing or crop production. TIP now includes eligibility for military veterans (i.e., "veteran
            farmers").
         
         
            OPERATING EXPENSESThe Corporation carries out its functions through utilization of employees and facilities of other Government agencies. Administrative
            expenses are incurred by: the Farm Service Agency (FSA); the Foreign Agricultural Service; the Natural Resources Conservation
            Service; the Risk Management Agency; other agencies of the Department engaged in the Corporation's activities; and the Office
            of Inspector General for audit functions. Additional expenses are incurred by FSA county offices for work related to programs
            of the Corporation, other FSA expenses offset by revenue, custodian, and agency expenses of the Federal Reserve banks and
            lending agencies, and miscellaneous costs.
         
         Expenses are incurred for acquisition, operation, maintenance, improvement, or disposition of existing property that the Corporation
            owns or in which it has an interest. These expenses are treated as program expenses. Such program expenses include inspection,
            classing, and grading work performed on a fee basis by Federal employees or Federal- or State-licensed inspectors; and special
            services performed by Federal agencies within and outside this Department. Most of these general expenses, including storage
            and handling, transportation, inspection, classing and grading, and producer storage payments, are included in program costs.
            They are shown in the program and financing schedule in the entries entitled "Storage, transportation, and other obligations
            not included above.''
         
         Section 161 of the 1996 Act amended Section 11 of the CCC Charter Act to limit the use of CCC funds for the transfer and allotment
            of funds to State and Federal agencies. The Section 11 cap of $56 million remains in 2015 and 2016.
         
         The Corporation receives reimbursement for grain requisitioned pursuant to Public Law 87â152 by the States from Corporation
            stocks to feed resident wildlife threatened with starvation through the appropriation reimbursement for net realized losses.
            There have been no requisitions in recent years, however. The Corporation receives reimbursement for the commodity costs and
            other costs, including administrative costs, for commodities supplied to domestic nutrition programs and international food
            aid programs.
         
            FINANCINGAppropriations.âReimbursement for Net Realized Losses. Under Section 2 of Public Law 87 155, the Act of August 17 1961 (15 U.S.C. 713a 11),
            annual appropriations are authorized for each fiscal year, commencing with 1961, to reimburse the Corporation for net realized
            losses. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987 amended Public Law 87â155 to authorize that the Corporation is reimbursed
            for its net realized losses by means of a current, indefinite appropriation as provided in annual appropriations acts.
         
         Borrowing authority.âThe Corporation has an authorized capital stock of $100 million held by the U.S. Treasury and, effective in 1988, authority
            to have outstanding borrowings up to $30 billion at any one time. Funds are borrowed from the Treasury and may also be borrowed
            from private lending agencies and others. The Corporation reserves a sufficient amount of its borrowing authority to purchase
            at any time all notes and other obligations evidencing loans made to the Corporation by such agencies and others. All bonds,
            notes, debentures, and similar obligations issued by the Corporation are subject to approval by the Secretary of the Treasury
            as required by the Act of March 8, 1938.
         
         Interest on borrowings from the Treasury (and on capital stock) is paid at a rate based upon the average interest rate of
            all outstanding marketable obligations (of comparable maturity date) of the United States as of the preceding month. Interest
            is also paid on other notes and obligations at a rate prescribed by the Corporation and approved by the Secretary of the Treasury.
            The Department of Agriculture and Related Agencies Appropriation Act, 1966, made provision for terminating interest after
            June 30, 1964 on the portion of the Corporation's borrowings from the Treasury equal to the unreimbursed realized losses recorded
            on the books of the Corporation after the end of the fiscal year in which such losses are realized.
         
         Non-Expenditure Transfers.âThe Commodity Credit Corporation transfers CCC funds to several agencies responsible for administering Farm Bill and other
            Corporation programs. Once transferred the expenses are recorded in the receiving agencies accounts.

         This is the program account for the GSM-102 CCC Export Credit Guarantee Program. The GSM-102 Export Credit Guarantee Program
            covers credit terms of up to 18 months. Under this program, CCC does not provide financing, but guarantees payments due from
            foreign banks and buyers. Because payment is guaranteed, financial institutions in the United States can offer competitive
            credit terms to foreign banks, usually with interest rates based on the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR). If the foreign
            bank fails to make any payment as agreed, the exporter or assignee must submit a notice of default to the CCC. A claim for
            loss must be filed, and the CCC will promptly pay claims found to be in good order. CCC usually guarantees 98 percent of the
            principal payment due and interest based on a percentage of the one-year Treasury rate.
         
         A portion of the GSM-102 guarantees is also made available as Facilities Guarantees. Under this activity, CCC guarantees export
            financing for capital goods and services to improve handling, marketing, processing, storage, or distribution of imported
            agricultural commodities and products.
         
         The subsidy estimates for the GSM-102 program are determined in large part by the obligor's sovereign or non-sovereign country
            risk grade. These grades are developed annually by the International Credit Risk Assessment System Committee (ICRAS). In unusual
            circumstances, an ICRAS grade for a country may change during the fiscal year. The default estimates for GSM-102 guarantees
            still use the ICRAS grades, but are now based on programmatic experience and country-specific assumptions rather than the
            government-wide risk premia used previously.
         
         As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated
            with the credit guarantees committed in 1992 and beyond (including modifications of credit guarantees that resulted from obligations
            or commitments in any year), as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts are estimated on a present
            value basis; the administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis. The 2016 Budget displays the GSM loan guarantee volume,
            the subsidy level that can be justified by forecast economic conditions, and the expected supply/demand conditions of countries
            requesting GSM loan guarantees. The 2016 Budget includes $6.7 million for administrative expenses.

         Farm Storage Facility Loan (FSFL) Program._The FSFL program was established by the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) in 1949 to offer low-cost financing to producers
            for the construction or upgrade of on-farm storage facilitiesâthe program was discontinued in the early 1980's when studies
            showed sufficient storage space was available. The FSFL was re-established in 2000 due to a severe shortage of available storage.
            The program was implemented in 2000 by CCC under Section 504(c) of the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990. The Agricultural
            Act of 2014, the 2014 Farm Bill, continues the authority for this program. The program now provides producers financing with
            seven, ten, or twelve-year repayment terms and low interest rates. The program gives producers greater marketing flexibility
            when farm storage is limited and/or transportation difficulties cause storage problems, allows farmers to benefit from new
            marketing and technological advances, and maximizes their returns through identity-preserved marketing.
         
         Sugar Storage Facility Loans._The 2002 Farm Bill, as amended by the 2008 Farm Bill and extended in the 2014 Farm Bill, directs that the CCC establish a
            sugar storage facility loan program to provide financing for processors of domestically produced sugarcane and sugar beets
            to construct or upgrade storage and handling facilities for raw sugars and refined sugars. The loan term is a minimum of seven
            years with the amount and terms being determined as any other commercial loan. As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records the subsidy costs associated with the direct loans
               obligated in 1992 and beyond, as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts are estimated on a present
               value basis, and the administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis.

         The Agricultural Risk Protection Act of 2000 authorized up to $5 million for the cost to provide loans to producers of apples
            for economic losses as the result of low prices. Although the program is funded through the Commodity Credit Corporation,
            program management is performed through farm loan programs. No further funding is requested for this program.
         
         As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated
            with the direct loans obligated in 1992 and beyond (including modifications of direct loans or loan guarantees that resulted
            from obligations or commitments in any year), as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts are
            estimated on a present value basis.

         The Agricultural Disaster Relief Trust Fund, established under Section 902 of the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008,
            administered by USDA Farm Service Agency, used to execute payments to farmers and ranchers under the following five disaster
            assistance programs: Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments (SURE) Program, Livestock Forage Disaster Program (LFP), Livestock
            Indemnity Program (LIP), Tree Assistance Program (TAP), and Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honey Bees, and Farm-Raised
            Fish (ELAP) Program. The Agricultural Act of 2014, the 2014 Farm Bill, extended all but SURE and shifted the funding authority
            for these disaster programs from the Agriculture Disaster Relief Trust Fund to the Commodity Credit Corporation. FY 2014 outlays
            are due to residual payments, corrections and/or appeals to obligations incurred during crop years 2008â2011. Obligations
            in 2015 will be still be required to make residual payments for disaster programs under the Disaster Trust authority.

         The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) protects the natural resource base on private lands by providing technical
            assistance to farmers, ranchers and other private landowners to support the development of conservations plans, and by providing
            financial assistance to partially offset the cost to install practices necessary to safeguard natural resources and improve
            wildlife habitat. NRCS provides additional support for conservation efforts through soil surveys, snow survey and water supply
            forecasting, and plant materials centers. These activities are supported by appropriated funding, including funding which
            has traditionally been requested in the Conservation Operations account, and by mandatory funding in the Farm Security and
            Rural Investment account. NRCS is comprised of roughly 11,600 employees across a wide range of natural resource backgrounds
            such as soil and rangeland conservation, wildlife biology, forestry and engineering. Through this collective conservationist
            workforce, the Administration strives to protect the natural resource base on private lands.
         
         In 2016, the Administration proposes to show the total staff resources necessary to implement its private lands conservation
            program in the Private Lands Conservation Operations account. Importantly, this display will not alter the current authorities
            under which staff resources are provided through mandatory and discretionary funding. Budget invests $10 million over two-years
            to determine the effect incentive payments and outreach efforts have on farmers' willingness to adopt conservation practices
            and improve the efficiency of private lands conservation programs.  This multi-year effort will leverage administrative data
            as well as census and survey data within USDA (and potentially across other agencies) to build rigorous evidence and strengthen
            conservation implementation at least cost. A more detailed description of the specific programs within the Private Lands Conservation
            Operations account follows:
         
         Technical assistance._Through the Conservation Technical Assistance (CTA) Program, NRCS provides agricultural producers, private landowners, conservation
            districts, Tribes, and other organizations with the knowledge and conservation tools they need to conserve, maintain, and
            improve our natural resources. This assistance comes in the form of both individual and landscape-scale conservation plans
            which contain optimal strategies tailored to protect the resources on the land they manage. Actions described in the plans
            help land managers reduce erosion; protect water quality and quantity; address air quality; enhance the quality of fish and
            wildlife habitat; improve long-term sustainability of all lands; and facilitate land use changes while protecting and sustaining
            our natural resources. The 2016 Budget requests a total of $831.2 million for Conservation Operations.

         In addition to technical assistance for conservation planning provided through CTA, NRCS also offers technical assistance
            for the design, implementation, and management of cost-shared conservation practices through mandatory farm bill conservation
            programs under the Farm Security and Rural Investment Program. This combined technical assistance funding provides for the
            salaries and expenses of conservation professionals, including NRCS's extensive field staff and a growing number of technical
            service providers and other cooperators who work with land managers in assessing and applying conservation strategies.
         
         Soil surveys._The primary focus of the Soil Survey Program is to provide current and consistent map interpretations and data sets of the
            soil resources of the United States. Managing soil as a strategic natural resource is a key component to the vitality of the
            Nation's rural economies. Scientists and policy makers use soil survey information in studying climate change and evaluating
            the sustainability and environmental impacts of land use and management practices. Soil surveys are used by planners, engineers,
            farmers, ranchers, developers, and home owners to evaluate soil suitability and make management decisions for farms, home
            sites, subdivisions, commercial and industrial sites, and wildlife and recreational areas. NRCS is the lead Federal agency
            for the National Cooperative Soil Survey (NCSS), a partnership of Federal land management agencies, State agricultural experiment
            stations, private consultants, and State and local governments. NRCS provides the scientific expertise to enable the NCSS
            to develop and maintain a uniform system for mapping and assessing soil resources.
         
         Snow survey and water supply forecasting._NRCS field staff and cooperators collect and analyze data on snow depth, snow water equivalent, and other climate parameters
            at approximately 2,000 remote, high elevation data collection sites. The water supply forecasts are used by individual farmers
            and ranchers; water resource managers; Federal, State, and local government agencies; municipal and industrial water providers;
            hydroelectric power generation utilities; irrigation districts; fish and wildlife management agencies; reservoir project managers;
            recreationists; Tribal Nations; and the countries of Canada and Mexico.

          ._Operations of plant materials centers.âThe identification, testing, evaluation, and demonstration of plants and plant technologies to solve natural resource problems
               and improve the utilization of natural resources are made at 25 NRCS-operated plant materials centers to determine suitability
               for erosion control, cropland soil health and productivity, restoring wetlands, improving water quality, improving wildlife
               habitat (including pollinators), protecting streambank and riparian areas, stabilizing coastal dunes, producing biomass, improving
               air quality, and addressing other conservation treatment needs. Plant materials centers document and plant science technology
               in fact sheets, technical notes, the NRCS Field Office Technical Guide, and transferred to the public by the Web. Work at
               plant materials centers is the foundation of vegetative recommendations for NRCS and many other Federal and State agencies.

         Title XII of the Food Security Act of 1985 provides mandatory funding for critical conservation efforts on private lands,
               including critical wetlands, grasslands, forests, and farm and ranch lands. For conservation programs where NRCS is the lead
               implementation agency, funds are transferred from the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) to the Farm Security and Rural Investment
               Programs account. This mandatory funding supports NRCS's efforts to protect the natural resource base on private lands by
               providing technical assistance to farmers, ranchers and other private landowners to support the development of conservation
               plans, and by providing financial assistance to partially offset the cost to install practices necessary to safeguard natural
               resources and improve wildlife habitat.
         The Agricultural Act of 2014 amended Title XII of the Food Security Act of 1985, reauthorizing some programs, repealing some
               programs (although the purposes of these programs are included in other programs), and creating two new conservation programs
               that are administered by NRCS. A number of conservation programs were extended in the 2016 Budget's baseline beyond 2018 based
               upon scorekeeping conventions.
         In 2016, the Administration proposes to show the total staff resources necessary to implement its private lands conservation
               program in the Private Lands Conservation Operations account. Importantly, this new display will not alter the current authorities
               under which staff resources are provided through mandatory and discretionary funding. This account will continue to show the
               funding provided for the financial assistance costs necessary for delivering the following programs:
         Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP)._This program is authorized under section 1240 of the Food Security Act of 1985, as amended. The Agricultural Act of 2014 reauthorizes
            the program through 2018, and the 2016 Budget assumes that the program extends beyond that date in the baseline for scorekeeping
            purposes. The purpose of the program is to promote agricultural production and environmental quality as compatible national
            goals. The 2016 Budget proposes to limit obligations against the new authority provided in 2016 to $1,350 million for this
            program and proposes to permanently cancel new funding exceeding this amount for the program in 2016. In addition, the Budget
            proposes to permanently cancel $73 million of funds carried forward from 2015 for the program.
         
         Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP)._This program is authorized by Section 1238D of the Food Security Act of 1985, as amended. The Agricultural Act of 2014 reauthorized
            the program through 2018, and the 2016 Budget assumes that the program extends beyond that date in the baseline for scorekeeping
            purposes. The program encourages producers to address resource concerns in a comprehensive manner by undertaking additional
            conservation activities and improving, maintaining and managing existing conservation activities. The 2016 Budget proposes
            $1,457 million for this program to enroll 7,000,000 acres, which results in a reduction and permanent cancellation of $54
            million. This program is the successor to the Conservation Security Program, which was not continued in the Food, Conservation
            and Energy Act of 2008 except as necessary to support contracts entered into before September 30, 2008. The 2016 Budget proposes
            $5 million for the Conservation Security Program.
         
         Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) Technical Assistance._CRP is authorized by Sections 1231â1235A of the Food Security Act of 1985, as amended, and is administered by the Farm Service
            Agency. NRCS supports the program by providing technical assistance to producers to implement conservation practices on CRP
            land. The Agricutural Act of 2014 reauthorized the program, and the 2016 Budget assumes $50 million in technical assistance
            for NRCS support of CRP.
         
         Agricultural Conservation Easement Program (ACEP)._ACEP consists of two components: 1) an agricultural land easement component under which NRCS assists eligible entities to
            protect agricultural land by limiting non-agricultural uses of that land through the purchase of agricultural land easements;
            and 2) a wetland reserve easement component under which NRCS provides financial and technical assistance directly to landowners
            to restore, protect and enhance wetlands through the purchase of wetlands reserve easements. The program is authorized through
            2018 by the Agricultural Act of 2014 as a Title XII program under the Food Security Act of 1985. The 2016 Budget assumes that
            the program extends beyond 2018 in the baseline for scorekeeping purposes. For 2016, the authorized level of funding for ACEP
            is $450 million.
         
         Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP)._RCPP promotes the implementation of conservation activities through agreements between NRCS and partners and through conservation
            program contracts and easements with producers and landowners. The program is authorized through 2018 by the Agricultural
            Act of 2014 as a Title XII program under the Food Security Act of 1985. Through agreements between partners and conservation
            program contracts or easements directly with producers and landowners, RCPP helps implement conservation projects that may
            focus on water quality and quantity, soil erosion, wildlife habitat, drought mitigation, and flood control, or other regional
            priorities. The 2016 Budget assumes that the program extends beyond 2018 in the baseline for scorekeeping purposes. The authorized
            level of funding for RCPP is $100 million. In addition, seven percent of the funds and acres in covered programs (ACEP, EQIP,
            CSP, and HFRP) are reserved to ensure additional resources are available to carry out this program (funds and acres not committed
            by April 1 of each year revert back to the original program for use under that program).
         
         Voluntary Public Access and Habitat Incentive Program (VPA-HIP)._The program is authorized by Section 1240R of the Food Security Act of 1985, and Section 2503 of the Agricultural Act of 2014
            reauthorizes the program and provides $40 million for obligation between 2014 through 2018 (this program was not extended
            in the baseline beyond 2018). VPA-HIP is a competitive grant program. Funding is limited to State and Tribal governments establishing
            new public access programs, expanding existing public access programs, and/or enhancing wildlife habitat on lands enrolled
            in public access programs.
         
         In addition to the programs authorized under the Food Security Act of 1985, NRCS implements the following conservation programs:
         Agricultural Management Assistance Program (AMA)._This program is authorized by Section 524(b) of the Federal Crop Insurance Act (7 U.S.C. 1524(b)), as amended. It authorizes
            $10 million annually for the program, of which NRCS is to receive 50 percent. This program is implemented by NRCS, the Agricultural
            Marketing Service, and the Risk Management Agency. The NRCS AMA activities are carried out in 16 states in which participation
            in the Federal Crop Insurance Program is historically low. The program provides assistance to producers to mitigate financial
            risk by using conservation to reduce soil erosion and improve water quality. The Budget proposes providing the overall AMA
            program $10 million in 2016, of which NRCS is to receive $5 million.
         
         NRCS works to deliver conservation programs using its technical field staff and by partnering with public and private entities
               through the Technical Service Provider (TSP) system. NRCS can contract with TSPs to help deliver the Farm Bill programs, or
               agricultural producers may select TSPs to help plan and implement conservation practices on their operations.
         The U.S. has made great strides in improving water quality; however, nonpoint source pollution remains a significant challenge
               that requires policy attention and thoughtful new approaches. In 2016, the Budget continues the agency's efforts to better
               coordinate conservation efforts among key Federal partners, along with agricultural producer organizations, conservation districts,
               States, Tribes, NGOs and other local leaders to identify areas where a focused and coordinated approach can achieve substantial
               improvements in water quality. The Budget builds upon the collaborative process already underway among Federal partners to
               demonstrate substantial improvements in water quality from conservation programs by ensuring that USDA's key investments through
               Farm Bill conservation programs and related efforts are appropriately leveraged by other Federal programs.
         Finally, the Agricultural Act of 2014 repealed the Wetlands Reserve Program, Grasslands Reserve Program and the Farmlands
               and Ranchlands Protection Program and included the purposes of those programs in the new Agricultural Conservation Easement
               Program referred to above. The Agricultural Act of 2014 also repealed the Agricultural Water Enhancement Program, Chesapeake
               Bay Watershed Program, Great Lakes Basin Program, and the Cooperative Conservation Partnership Initiative and included the

         NRCS watershed programs provide for cooperative actions between the Federal Government and States and their political subdivisions
            to reduce damage from floodwater, sediment, and erosion; for the conservation, development, utilization, and disposal of water;
            and for the conservation and proper utilization of land. Funds in Watershed and Flood Prevention Operations can be used for
            either flood prevention projects or flood damage rehabilitation efforts, depending upon the needs and opportunities. The 2016
            Budget request includes $200 million to increase landscape resiliency and better protect communities most vulnerable to the
            effects of climate change. NRCS will develop and implement a strategy focused on assisting communities in preparation for
            and mitigation from extreme weather events, with an initial focus on projects that benefit costal areas.
         
         Emergency watershed protection program._NRCS undertakes such emergency measures for runoff retardation and soil erosion prevention as may be needed to safeguard life
            and property from floods and the products of erosion on any watershed whenever natural elements or forces cause a sudden impairment
            of that watershed. An emergency is considered to exist when a watershed is suddenly impaired by flood, fire, wind, earthquake,
            drought or other natural causes and consequently life and property are endangered by floodwater, erosion, or sediment discharge.
            Subject to the terms and conditions of funding, NRCS may provide Emergency Watershed Protection assistance to address small
            scale, localized disasters. State agencies including environmental, natural resource, and fish and game agencies participate
            in planning and coordinating emergency work. Funding for the Emergency Watershed Protection Program is typically provided
            through emergency supplemental appropriations. The Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act of 2015 provides
            $78.6 million for EWP for necessary expenses resulting from major disasters declared pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster
            Relief and Emergency Assistance Act. The 2016 Budget does not request funding for this program.
         
         Watershed operations authorized by Public Law 78â534._NRCS cooperates with soil conservation districts and other local organizations in planning and installing flood prevention
            improvements in 11 watersheds authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1944. The Federal Government shares the cost of improvements
            for flood prevention, agricultural water management, recreation, and fish and wildlife development. This program did not receive
            an appropriation in 2011 -2015. The 2016 budget does not request funding for this program. NRCS is closing out watershed operations
            projects started prior to 2011 with unobligated balances from prior years.
         
         Small watershed operations authorized by Public Law 83â566._NRCS provides technical and financial assistance to local organizations to install measures for watershed protection, flood
            prevention, agricultural water management, recreation, and fish and wildlife enhancement.  NRCS is closing out small watershed
            operations projects started prior to 2011 with unobligated balances from prior years.Loans through the Agricultural Credit Insurance Fund have been made in previous years to the local sponsors in order to fund
               the local cost of Public Law 83â566 or 78â534 projects. No funding for these loans is assumed in 2016.

         Under the authorities of Section 14 of the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act, assistance is provided to communities
            to address the rehabilitation of aging local dams. The 2015 enacted level included $12 million for the Watershed Rehabilitation
            Program. No funding is requested in the 2016 Budget, reflecting the Administration's position that the maintenance, repair,
            and operation of these dams are the responsibility of local project sponsors. The Agricultural Act of 2014 provided $250 million
            for this program. The Budget proposes no mandatory funding for this program in 2016; $69 million currently available is proposed
            to be permanently cancelled (see General Provisions for the Department of Agriculture).

         The Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D) Program was developed under the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment
            Act (16 U.S.C. 590a-590f); the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant Act (16 U.S.C. 1010 and 1011); and the Food and Agricultural Act
            of 1962 (P.L. 87â703). It is authorized under subtitle H, title XV of the Agricultural and Food Act of 1981 (16 U.S.C. 3451â3461),
            as amended. The program was permanently authorized by the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 and further amended
            by the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 (P.L. 110â246).
         
         No funding was appropriated for the RC&D Program in 2012â2015.  After decades of Federal assistance, many RC&D Councils supported
            by the program have developed sufficiently strong State and local ties and are now able to secure funding for their continued
            operation without the need for ongoing Federal assistance. No funding is requested in the 2016 Budget.
         
      
         Healthy Forests Reserve Program                                                                                          
            
         
         Title V of the Healthy Forests Restoration Act of 2003 (Public Law 108â148) authorized the establishment of the Healthy Forests
            Reserve Program (HFRP). This program assists landowners in restoring, enhancing and protecting forest ecosystems to: 1) promote
            the recovery of threatened and endangered species; 2) improve biodiversity; and 3) enhance carbon sequestration.
         
         Administered by NRCS, HFRP is a voluntary program with enrollment eligible only to privately-held land.  Land enrolled in
            HFRP must have a restoration plan that includes practices necessary to restore and enhance habitat for species listed as threatened
            or endangered, or are candidates for the threatened or endangered species list. Technical assistance will be provided by USDA
            to assist owners in complying with the terms of restoration plans under HFRP.
         
         The 2016 Budget does not request discretionary funding for the HFRP.

         The Water Bank Program was authorized by the Water Bank Act of 1970 (16 U.S.C. 1301â1311), as amended by Public Law 96â182,
            approved January 2, 1980. The objectives of the Water Bank Program are to conserve water; to preserve, maintain, and improve
            the Nation's wetlands; to increase waterfowl habitat in migratory waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding areas in the United
            States; and to secure recreational and environmental benefits for the Nation. The 2015 enacted level included $4 million to
            implement non-renewable agreements on eligible lands, including flooded agricultural lands, as determined by the Secretary,
            under the Water Bank Act. No funding is requested in the 2016 Budget.

         (Legislative proposal, subject to PAYGO)
         This fee proposal would allow up to a $50 per loan guaranteed underwriting fee for lenders who participate in the section
            502 single family housing loan guarantee program, which would become a dedicated funding source to offset the cost of systems
            upgrades and maintenance for the USDA Rural Housing Service's Guaranteed Underwriting System (GUS). The authority is expected
            to begin generating fees in 2018. Current estimates are that a $25 fee per loan will be charged, which is expected to generate
            $3.9 million a year to support the GUS.

         The very low-income housing repair grant program is authorized under section 504 of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended. This
            grant program enables very low-income elderly residents in rural areas to improve or modernize their dwellings, to make the
            dwelling safer or more sanitary, or to remove health and safety hazards. The Budget requests $25 million for this program
            in 2016.
         
         No funding is requested in the 2016 Budget for the rural housing preservation grant program. USDA's preservation activities
            for multi-family housing are being carried out through programs in the multifamily housing revitalization account.
         
         For other housing assistance grants authorized for funding in this account such as supervisory and technical assistance grants
            as authorized by section 509(f) and 525 of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, no funding is requested in the 2016 Budget,
            which is the same as the 2015 appropriations.
         
      
         Rental assistance programFor rental assistance agreements entered into or renewed pursuant to the authority under section 521(a)(2) or agreements entered
         into in lieu of debt forgiveness or payments for eligible households as authorized by section 502(c)(5)(D) of the Housing
         Act of 1949, [$1,088,500,000] $1,171,900,000; and, in addition, such sums as may be necessary, as authorized by section 521(c) of the Act, to liquidate debt incurred
         prior to fiscal year 1992 to carry out the rental assistance program under section 521(a)(2) of the Act: Provided, That rental assistance agreements entered into or renewed during the current fiscal year shall be funded [for a 1-year period] up to one year: Provided further, That rental assistance contracts will not be renewed within the 12-month contract period: Provided further, That rental assistance will be renewed at the discretion of the Secretary: Provided further, That tenants
            in projects financed under section 514 and 515 shall contribute a minimum of $50 per month towards the rent, as determined
            by the Secretary, unless the Secretary determines a lower amount because the tenant qualifies for a hardship exemption, which
            shall, to the extent possible and practical, be consistent with similar hardship exemption requirements and conditions established
            by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development for similar programs: Provided further, That any unexpended balances remaining at the end of such 1-year agreements may be transferred and used for the purposes
         of any debt reduction; maintenance, repair, or rehabilitation of any existing projects; preservation; and rental assistance
         activities authorized under title V of the Act: Provided further, That rental assistance provided under agreements entered into prior to fiscal year [2015] 2016 for a farm labor multi-family housing project financed under section 514 or 516 of the Act may not be recaptured for use
         in another project until such assistance has remained unused for a period of 12 consecutive months, if such project has a
         waiting list of tenants seeking such assistance or the project has rental assistance eligible tenants who are not receiving
         such assistance: Provided further, That such recaptured rental assistance shall, to the extent practicable, be applied to another farm labor multi-family housing
         project financed under section 514 or 516 of the Act. (Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2015.)

         The rental assistance program is authorized under section 521(a)(2) of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, and is designed
            to reduce rent expenses for very low-income and low-income families living in RHS-financed rural rental and farm labor housing
            projects. Funding under this account is provided for renewals of existing rental assistance contracts and assistance for newly
            constructed units financed by the section 515 loan program and the 514/516 farm labor housing loan and grant programs. At
            USDA's discretion, some funds may also be used for additional servicing assistance for existing projects. For 2016, the request
            for rental assistance grants is for contracts for up to one year, with one-year availability, with a total funding level of
            $1.172 billion. Rural Development is committed to maintaining a sustainable rental assistance program. The 2016 Budget incorporates
            changes to the operation of the program that are designed to ensure the long term viability of the program. Residents receiving
            rental assistance payments will be required to pay a minimum rent of $50 per month; the agency will no longer automatically
            renew contracts within the same 12 month period; contracts will be renewed at the discretion of the Secretary depending upon
            the needs of the project; and contracts will be issued for a fixed time and fixed sum, and income verification will ensure
            the right level of subsidy is being received by the appropriate tenant. The authorities are included in the Budget and will
            also be proposed in a separate multifamily housing reinvention legislative package that will, in addition to those proposals,
            include language to provide permanent authority for the tools used to preserve and revitalize the existing Section 515 portfolio.
         
         From 1978 through 1991, the rental assistance program was funded under the Rural Housing Insurance Fund (RHIF). Beginning
            in 1992, pursuant to Credit Reform, a separate grant account was established for this program. Prior year obligations are
            funded with "such sums" amounts to cover those pre-credit reform contracts in RHIF.
         
      
         Multi-family housing revitalization program accountFor the rural housing voucher program as authorized under section 542 of the Housing Act of 1949, but notwithstanding subsection
         (b) of such section, and for additional costs to conduct a demonstration program for the preservation and revitalization of
         multi-family rental housing properties described in this paragraph, [$24,000,000] $34,000,000, to remain available until expended: Provided, That of the funds made available under this heading, [$7,000,000] $15,000,000, shall be available for rural housing vouchers to any low-income household (including those not receiving rental assistance)
         residing in a property financed with a section 515 loan [which] that has been prepaid after September 30, 2005, or that is otherwise paying off the section 515 financing as based on prioritization as determined by the Secretary: Provided further, That the amount of such voucher shall be the difference between comparable market rent for the section 515 unit and the
         tenant paid rent for such unit: Provided further, That funds made available for such vouchers shall be subject to the availability of annual appropriations: Provided further, That the Secretary shall, to the maximum extent practicable, administer such vouchers with current regulations and administrative
         guidance applicable to section 8 housing vouchers administered by the Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development:
         Provided further, That, if the Secretary determines that the amount made available for vouchers in this or any other Act is not needed for vouchers,
         the Secretary may use such funds for the demonstration program for the preservation and revitalization of multi-family rental
         housing properties described in this paragraph: Provided further, That of the funds made available under this heading, [$17,000,000] $19,000,000 shall be available for a demonstration program for the preservation and revitalization of the sections 514, 515, and 516
         multi-family rental housing properties to restructure existing USDA multi-family housing loans, as the Secretary deems appropriate,
         expressly for the purposes of ensuring the project has sufficient resources to preserve the project for the purpose of providing
         safe and affordable housing for low-income residents and farm laborers including reducing or eliminating interest; deferring
         loan payments, subordinating, reducing or reamortizing loan debt; and other financial assistance including advances, payments
         and incentives (including the ability of owners to obtain reasonable returns on investment) required by the Secretary: Provided further, That the Secretary shall as part of the preservation and revitalization agreement obtain a restrictive use agreement consistent
         with the terms of the restructuring: Provided further, That, if the Secretary determines that additional funds for vouchers described in this paragraph are needed, funds for the preservation
         and revitalization demonstration program may be used for such vouchers: Provided further, That if Congress enacts legislation to permanently authorize a multi-family rental housing loan restructuring program similar
         to the demonstration program described herein, the Secretary may use funds made available for the demonstration program under
         this heading to carry out such legislation with [the prior approval of] notice to the Committees on Appropriations of both Houses of Congress: Provided further, That in addition to any other available funds, the Secretary may expend not more than $1,000,000 total, from the program
         funds made available under this heading, for administrative expenses for activities funded under this heading. (Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2015.)

         USDA's portfolio of multi-family housing projects provides housing for nearly half a million low-income families, many of
            whom are elderly. Projects that received their financing prior to 1989 are allowed to prepay and leave the program. USDA may
            assist families displaced by sponsors' prepayments by providing them with letters of priority and vouchers, which were newly
            funded in 2006. The Budget requests $15 million in 2016 for housing vouchers for residents of projects whose sponsors prepay
            or payoff their outstanding indebtedness on USDA loans and leave the program. The vouchers related to prepayments as well
            as payoffs will be awarded based on prioritization of need as determined by the Secretary. In addition, the Budget requests
            $19 million for continuation of the multi-family housing revitalization pilot program in 2016. This funding will allow USDA
            to focus on management of the current multifamily housing portfolio to ensure that the USDA-financed properties continue to
            provide decent, safe, affordable housing for their rural tenant population. The Budget includes a legislative proposal to
            make this program permanent.
         
         Prior year obligated balances reflect funding for rental assistance for newly constructed units provided in limited amounts
            in 1984 and 1985. From 1986 through 1991 rental assistance for newly constructed units, as well as existing rental assistance
            contract renewals and additional servicing assistance for existing projects, had been funded under the Rural Housing Insurance
            Fund. Beginning in 1992, pursuant to Credit Reform, a separate grant account was established for the rental assistance program.

         This account funds the direct and guaranteed community facility loans and community facility grants, which are authorized
            under sections 306(a)(1) and 306(a)(19) of the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act, as amended.  Loans are provided
            to local governments and nonprofit organizations for the construction and improvement of community facilities providing essential
            services in rural areas of not more than 20,000 population, such as hospitals and fire stations. Total program level in 2016
            is projected to be $2.2 billion for direct loans. The 2016 Budget proposes no guaranteed loans due to an increase in the cost
            of the program and because it is likely that some demand for the guarantee program will be filled with the increase in the
            direct loan program. The 2016 Budget requests $62 million for grant purposes.  This includes $50 million for regular community
            facilities grants, a portion of which will be used for place-based community projects. The Budget also includes $4 million
            for the Rural Community Development initiative and $8 million for Tribal College grants.

         Rural Housing Insurance Fund._This fund was established in 1965 (Public Law 89â117) pursuant to section 517 of title V of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended.
            Loan programs are limited to rural areas that include towns, villages, and other places which are not part of an urban area.
            These areas have a population not in excess of 2,500 inhabitants, or in excess of 2,500, but not in excess of 10,000 if rural
            in character, or a population in excess of 10,000 but not more than 20,000. Areas are within a standard metropolitan statistical
            area and have a serious lack of mortgage credit for low- and moderate-income borrowers.For 2016, the Section 502 single family housing guarantees are requested at a $24 billion loan level.  The subsidy rate for
               2016 is a blended rate of the new/purchase single family housing guarantees with the refinanced single housing guarantees,
               and with the combination annual and up-front fee structure, the subsidy rate continues to be negative. For this program, the
               2016 Budget includes two proposals to improve program delivery and increase efficiency: 1) To make USDA's guaranteed home
               loan program a direct endorsement program, which is consistent with VA and FHA's guaranteed home loan programs; 2) To require
               up to $50 per loan guaranteed underwriting fee for lenders, which would become a dedicated funding source to pay for systems
               upgrades and maintenance of the Guarantee Loan Underwriting System (GUS). The Budget requests a loan level of $900 million for Section 502 single family housing direct loans. The 2016 Budget requests
               a funding level of approximately $42.3 million for Section 515 multi-family housing loans, $26.3 million for Section 504 very
               low-income housing repair loans, $5 million for Section 524 site development loan, and $10 million for credit sales of acquired
               property for single family housing loans. No funding is requested for Section 523 self-help housing land development and credit
               sales of acquired propery for multi-family housing.The 2016 Budget also requests $200 million in funding for the multi-family housing guaranteed loan program, and continues
               to include appropriations language that will allow the program to operate without interest subsidy and with a fee, which removes
               the main subsidy cost drivers in this program.In addition, the 2016 Budget includes $23.9 million in farm labor housing loans and $8.3 million in farm labor housing grants.As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated
               with the direct loans obligated and loan guarantees committed in 1992 and beyond (including credit sales of acquired property),
               as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts are estimated on a present value basis; the administrative
               expenses are estimated on a cash basis.

         Grants for rural cooperative development were authorized under section 310B(e) of the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development
            Act by Public Law 104â127, April 4, 1996. These grants are made available to nonprofit corporations and institutions of higher
            education to fund the establishment and operation of centers for rural cooperative development.  The 2016 Budget proposes
            $6 million for the Rural Cooperative Development Grants. The Appropriate Technology Transfer to Rural Areas (ATTRA) program
            was first authorized by the Food Security Act of 1985. The program provides information and technical assistance to agricultural
            producers to adopt sustainable agricultural practices that are environmentally friendly and lower production costs. The 2016
            Budget requests $2.1 million for ATTRA. The 2016 Budget also includes $3 million for grants to assist minority producers.
            These grants provide assistance to small minority producers through cooperatives and associations of cooperatives.
         
         Additionally, USDA provides Value-Added Marketing Grants for producers of agricultural commodities. These grants can be used
            for planning activities and for working capital for marketing value-added agricultural products. The Budget requests to fund
            the program at $10 million.

         This grant program is authorized under section 313 of the Rural Electrification Act, as amended, and provides funds for the
            purpose of promoting rural economic development and job creation projects, including funding for project feasibility studies,
            start-up costs, incubator projects and other expenses for the purpose of fostering rural development.
         
         Funding for this program is provided from the interest differential on Rural Utilities Service borrowers' "cushion of credit"
            accounts. The Budget proposes a cancellation of $154 million from the "cushion of credit" account in 2016. The Budget proposes
            $12 million for rural economic development grants and $11.4 million for loan subsidy. This subsidy supports a loan level of
            $85 million.

         This account funds direct and guaranteed business and industry loans, rural business development grants, and the rural youth
            poverty program.  Business and industry guaranteed and direct loans are authorized under section 310B(a)(1) of the Consolidated
            Farm and Rural Development, as amended. These loans are made to public, private or cooperative organizations, Indian tribes
            or tribal groups, corporate entities, or individuals for the purpose of improving the economic climate in rural areas. For
            direct loans, no funds have been requested or provided since 2002, and no funds are requested in the Budget. The 2016 projections
            for loan guarantees are $758 million.  The Budget does not propose funding for rural business enterprise grants and rural
            business opportunity grants. Instead, these activities will be funded at $30 million in a consolidated rural business development
            grants program as authorized by the Agricultural Act of 2014. The Budget also includes funding for a new program to combat
            rural youth poverty. Rural childhood poverty rates are at their highest point since 1986: one in four children live in poverty.
            Deep poverty among children is more prevalent in rural areas (12.2 percent) than in urban areas (9.2 percent). To help alleviate
            this growing disparity the Budget provides $20 million to support innovative strategies to combat rural child poverty by focusing
            on both children and the parents with a bundled services approach. The proposal provides (1) a new pilot program using grants
            to deliver financial resources to support this work, (2) human resources through work with the Corporation for National and
            Community Service and a pilot federal employee development program, and (3) robust evaluation. 
         
         The President is again asking Congress to revive an authority enabling him to submit fast-track proposals to reorganize or
            consolidate Federal programs and agencies in order to reduce the size of Government or cut costs.  The Budget includes a variety
            of proposed reforms across government designed to drive efficiency and accountability, prevent duplication, and make government
            work better and smarter for the American people.  One of these reorganizations the President would propose with this authority
            reiterates his previous proposal to consolidate Federal business and trade programs into one more efficient and effective
            department dedicated to promoting U.S. competitiveness, exports, and American businesses and jobs.  The proposal would integrate
            the six Federal agencies that focus primarily on business and trade, along with other related programs.  These include the
            Department of Commerce's core business and trade functions, the Small Business Administration, the Office of the U.S. Trade
            Representative, the Export-Import Bank, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation, and the U.S. Trade and Development Agency,
            as well as rural business programs at the Department of Agriculture, Treasury's Community Development Financial Institution
            Program, and statistical agencies at the Department of Labor and National Science Foundation.  To strengthen the new department's
            focus on business and economic growth, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration would be consolidated into the
            Department of Interior, strengthening stewardship and conservation efforts and enhancing scientific resources. The Budget
            schedules for these agencies and programs continue to reflect them in their current alignment.

         This account finances loans to intermediary borrowers, who, in turn, re-lend the funds to small rural businesses, community
            development corporations, and other organizations for the purpose of improving economic opportunities in rural areas. Through
            the use of local intermediaries, this program serves small-scale enterprises and gives preference to those communities with
            the greatest need. The 2016 Budget proposes $2.8 million in budget authority to support this program.
         
         As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated
            with the direct loans obligated in 1992 and beyond, as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts
            are estimated on a present value basis; the administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis.

         Rural economic development loans are made for the purpose of promoting rural economic development and job creation projects.
            Loans are made to electric and telecommunication borrowers, who, in turn, finance rural development projects in their service
            areas. Program costs are derived from interest earnings on borrowers' "cushion of credit'' loan prepayments. The 2016 Budget
            proposes a loan level of $85 million for this program.
         
         As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated
            with the direct loans obligated in 1992 and beyond. The subsidy amounts are estimated on a present value basis.

         The Rural Business Investment Program was authorized and provided mandatory funding by section 6029 of the Farm Security and
            Rural Investment Act of 2002, Public Law 107â171.  The 2016 Budget requests $6 million in budget authority for this program,
            $4 million will be used to support loans and $2 million for grants.
         
         As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated
            with the loan guarantees committed in 1992 and beyond, as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts
            are estimated on a present value basis; the administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis.

         High energy costs grants can be made to eligible entities or the Denali Commission to construct, extend, upgrade, and otherwise
            improve energy generation, transmission, or distribution facilities serving communities in which the average residential expenditure
            for home energy is at least 275 percent of the national average residential expenditure for home energy (as determined by
            the Energy Information Agency using the most recent data available). Grants are also available to establish and support a
            revolving fund to provide a more cost-effective means of purchasing fuel where the fuel cannot be shipped by means of surface
            transportation. The Budget proposes no funding in 2016 for these grants.

         This account funds the direct and guaranteed water and waste disposal loans, water and waste disposal grants, emergency community
            water assistance grants, and solid waste management grants.
         
         Water and waste disposal loans are authorized under 7 U.S.C. 1926. The program provides direct loans to municipalities, counties,
            special purpose districts, certain Indian Tribes, and non-profit corporations to develop water and waste disposal systems
            in rural areas and towns with populations of less than 10,000. The program also guarantees water and waste disposal loans
            made by banks and other eligible lenders. The budget requests $31.3 million in budget authority to support a projected loan
            level of $1.2 billion in direct loans. No guaranteed loans are proposed for 2016.  
         
         Water and waste disposal grants are authorized under Section 306(a)(2) of the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act,
            as amended. Grants are authorized to be made to associations, including nonprofit corporations, municipalities, counties,
            public and quasi-public agencies, and certain Indian tribes. The grants can be used to finance development, storage, treatment,
            purification, or distribution of water or the collection, treatment, or disposal of waste in rural areas and cities or towns
            with populations of less than 10,000. The amount of any development grant may not exceed 75 percent of the eligible development
            cost of the project. In 2016, $448 million is requested for this program.
         
         Emergency community water assistance grants are authorized under Section 306A of the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development
            Act, as amended. Grants are made to public bodies and nonprofit organizations for construction or extension of water lines,
            repair or maintenance of existing systems, replacement of equipment, and payment of costs to correct emergency situations.
            These grants are funded on an as needed basis using flexibility of funds authority.  The 2016 Budget proposes to make up to
            $10 million available for these grants from the funding requested for the water and waste grants.
         
         Solid waste management grants are authorized under Section 310B(b) of the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act, as
            amended. Grants are made to non-profit organizations to provide regional technical assistance to local and regional governments
            and related agencies for the purpose of reducing or eliminating pollution of water resources, and for improving the planning
            and management of solid waste disposal facilities. In 2016 $4 million is requested for this program.

         The Rural Utilities Service (RUS) conducts the rural electrification and the rural telecommunications loan programs. The rural
            electrification loan program finances the operation of generating plants, electric transmission, and distribution lines or
            systems. The rural telecommunications loan program provides funding for construction, expansion, and operation of telecommunications
            lines and facilities or systems. The Budget requests $345 million for the telecommunications Treasury loan program and $345
            million for the telecommunications FFB loan program .
         
         The Budget supports the Administration's commitment to phase out fossil fuel subsidies. The total electric loan level included
            in the Budget is $6 billion, of which, up to $3 billion may be available for environmental improvements to fossil fuel electric
            generating plants that would reduce emissions of air pollutants, including greenhouse gases, provided that this action is
            consistent with any applicable state-level clean power plan. The remaining $3 billion would be limited to renewable energy,
            transmission, distribution, carbon capture projects on generation facilities, and low emission peaking units affiliated with
            energy facilities that produce electricity from solar, wind and other intermittent sources of energy.
         
         
         As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for rural electrification and telecommunications
            programs, the subsidy costs associated with the direct and guaranteed loans obligated in 1992 and beyond (including modifications
            of direct loans or loan guarantees that resulted from obligations or commitments in any year), as well as administrative expenses
            of this program. The subsidy amounts are estimated on a present value basis; the administrative expenses are estimated on
            a cash basis.

         The Rural Telephone Bank was dissolved in 2006. To accomplish this, the Rural Telephone Bank liquidating account loans were
            used to redeem a portion of the Government's stock. The Rural Telephone Bank liquidating account loans were transferred to
            the Rural Electrification and Telecommunications liquidating account in 2006.
         
         The Rural Utilities Service (RUS) continues to service all loans in this account, providing business management and technical
            assistance to the borrowers on a regular basis over the life of the loans.
         
         Rural electric._This program is financed through RUS direct loans for the construction and operation of generating plants, electric transmission,
            and distribution lines or systems.As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for rural electrification and telecommunications
               programs, all cash flows to and from the Government resulting from direct loans obligated and loan guarantees committed prior
               to 1992. All new activity in RETRF in 1992 and beyond is recorded in corresponding program and financing accounts.The following tables reflect statistics on loans made through the liquidating account only. Since 1992 new electric and telephone
               loans have been made through a separate program account.

         The Rural Telephone Bank (RTB) completed dissolution in 2006, therefore no federally funded RTB loans are proposed.
         As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for the RTB, the subsidy costs associated with
            the direct loans obligated in 1992 and beyond as well as administrative expenses for the program. The subsidy amounts are
            estimated on a present value basis; administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis.

         The loan and grant program provides access to advanced telecommunications services for improved education and health care
            in rural areas throughout the country. The loans and grants help education and health care providers bring the most modern
            technology, level of care, and education to rural America so its citizens can compete regionally, nationally, and globally.
         
         Since there is little demand for the Distance Learning, Telemedicine (DLT) loans, the Budget proposes no funding for DLT loans
            in 2016 while requesting $24.95 million for DLT grants. The request for Broadband grants is $20.4 million, and the Broadband
            loan request is $9.7 million.

         The Foreign Agricultural Service's (FAS) mission is linking U.S. agriculture to the world to enhance export opportunities
            and global food security. FAS helps to provide outlets for the wide variety of U.S. agricultural products, thereby enhancing
            economic activity for U.S. workers. FAS serves U.S. agriculture's interests by expanding and maintaining international export
            opportunities, supporting international economic development and trade and capacity building, and global food security. The
            outcomes envisioned are exports that help U.S. agriculture prosper, the expansion of U.S. exports of organics and crops produced
            using new technologies and food that are globally available, accessible, and appropriately used. In addition to its Washington-based
            staff, the agency maintains a network of overseas offices that serve as first responders in cases of market disruption. The
            overseas offices also provide the Department with critical market and policy intelligence, and they represent U.S. agriculture
            in consultations with foreign governments. The 2016 Budget includes $191.6 million for FAS, an increase of $10.2 million over
            the 2015 enacted level. For more information on FAS's mission and program topic areas, please visit http://www.fas.usda.gov/topics.

         The Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) for Farmers Program was reauthorized and modified by the American Recovery and Reinvestment
            Act of 2009 as established by Subtitle C of Title I of the Trade Act of 2002, which amended the Trade Act of 1974. The statute
            authorized appropriations to the Department of Agriculture not to exceed $90 million each year for 2009 and for 2010 and $22.5
            million for the period beginning October 1, 2010 and ending December 31, 2010 to carry out the program. Title II of Public
            Law 112â40, the Trade Adjustment Assistance Extension Act of 2011, extended the authority for the program and authorized appropriations
            of $90 million for 2012 and 2013, and $22.5 million for the period October 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013. The 2016 Budget
            does not request funding for the program.

         Multiple food aid programs are appropriated to USDA and administered by USDA or the U.S. Agency for International Development
            (USAID) to provide U.S. commodities, technical and financial assistance to address hunger and malnutrition needs worldwide.
            These programs address emergency needs and foster economic development activities to alleviate global food insecurity.

         1Assets of the trust can be released any time the Administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development determines
         that P.L. 480 Title II funding for emergency needs is inadequate to meet these needs in any fiscal year.
         Included in this category are the following activities carried out under Public Law 480 (P.L. 480):
         Financing sales of agricultural commodities to developing countries for dollars on credit terms, or for local currencies (including
               for local currencies on credit terms) for use under sec 104; and for furnishing commodities to carry out the Food for Progress
               Act of 1985, as amended (Title I)._Funds appropriated for P.L. 480 are used to finance all sales made pursuant to agreements concluded under the authority of
            Title I. No 2016 funding is requested for new direct credit under Title I; however, funding for administrative expenses associated
            with managing the existing loan portfolio is requested. No funding is requested for Title I ocean freight differential for
            2016.
         
         Commodities supplied in connection with dispositions abroad (Title II)._Title II of the Food for Peace Act (P.L. 83â480), as amended, formerly the Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act
            of 1954) authorizes the provision of U.S. food assistance to meet emergency food needs around the world, and funds development-oriented
            programs to help address the underlying causes of food insecurity. P.L. 480 Title II is appropriated to the U.S. Department
            of Agriculture and is administered by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).The Commodity Credit Corporation (the Corporation) is authorized to pay the costs of acquisition, packaging, processing, enrichment,
               preservation, fortification, transportation, handling, and other incidental costs incurred up to the time of delivery at U.S.
               ports. The Corporation also pays ocean freight charges, and pays transportation costs to points of entry other than ports
               in the case of landlocked countries, where carriers to a specific country are not available, where ports cannot be used effectively,
               or where a substantial savings in costs or time can be effected, and pays general average contributions arising from ocean
               transport. In addition, transportation costs from designated points of entry or ports of entry abroad to storage and distribution
               sites and associated storage and distribution costs may be paid for commodities made available to meet urgent and extraordinary
               relief requirements. P.L. 480 funds reimburse the Corporation for all of the cost items authorized above.

         The McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Program, as amended, is authorized under the Farm Security
            and Rural Investment Act of 2002 (Public Law 107â171). The program provides for the donation of U.S. agricultural commodities
            and associated technical and financial assistance to carry out preschool and school feeding programs in foreign countries
            in order to improve food security, reduce the incidence of hunger and malnutrition, and improve literacy and primary education.
            Maternal, infant, and child nutrition programs also are authorized. The 2016 Budget includes $ 191.6 million, which maintains
            the 2015 enacted level. The Budget also includes language to add flexibility to the McGovern-Dole Program that would allow
            grant recipients to purchase agricultural commodities from local and regional sources in the developing country. Local and
            regional procurement tends to be cheaper and faster than shipping U.S. commodities overseas; local purchases should be used
            to provide a nutritious complement to U.S. commodities. The flexibility allows the requested funding to reach more families,
            feed more children and improve nutrition.

         The 2016 President's Budget proposes $20 million for the Local and Regional Food Aid Procurement Program. Section 3207 of
            the Agricultural Act of 2014, Public Law 113â79 (7 U.S.C. 1726c) authorizes the Secretary to enter into grants or cooperative
            agreement with eligible organizations to implement field-based projects that consist of local or regional procurements of
            eligible commodities to fill nutritional gaps for targeted populations and respond to food availability gaps generated by
            unexpected emergencies. Field-based projects are required to represent a diversity of projects, including those located in
            (1) food surplus regions; (2) food deficit regions (that are carried out using regional procurement methods); and (3) multiple
            geographical regions. The initial phase of the program will focus primarily on development projects.

         Title II of the Food for Peace Act (P.L. 83â480), as amended, formerly the Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act
            of 1954) authorizes the provision of U.S. food assistance to meet emergency food needs around the world, and funds development-oriented
            programs to help address the underlying causes of food insecurity. Funding for Title II, also known as P.L. 480 Title II,
            is appropriated to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and is administered by the U.S. Agency for International Development
            (USAID).
         
         The 2016 request of $1.4 billion includes $270 million to be used for development programs in combination with an additional
            $80 million requested in the Development Assistance (DA) account under USAID's Community Development Fund, bringing the total
            funding for these types of programs to $350 million. Together, these resources support development food assistance programs'
            efforts to address chronic food insecurity in areas of recurrent crises using a multi-sectoral approach to reduce poverty
            and build resilience. The balance of the request, $1.13 billion, will be used to provide emergency food assistance in response
            to natural disasters and complex emergencies.
         
         The request includes new authority to use up to 25 percent ($350 million) of the appropriation in emergencies for interventions
            such as local or regional procurement of food near emergencies, food vouchers, or cash transfers. This flexibility makes emergency
            food aid more timely and cost-effective, improving program efficiencies and performance, and allowing USAID to assist about
            2 million more emergency beneficiaries annually with the same level of resources.

         As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for the P.L. 480 Program, the subsidy costs associated
            with the direct credit obligated in 1992 and beyond (including modifications of direct credit agreements that resulted from
            obligation in any year), as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts are estimated on a present
            value basis; and the administrative expenses and grants are estimated on a cash basis. The current balance of Title I debt
            owed to USDA is $3.6 billion. No additional funding is requested for new Title I credit financing in 2016. The 2016 Budget
            includes $2.5 million for administrative expenses.

         The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is the primary source of nutrition assistance for low-income Americans.This
            account also includes funds for a grant to Puerto Rico to administer a low-income nutrition assistance program, in lieu of
            the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program; funds to carry out the Emergency Food Assistance Act of 1983; and funds for
            food distribution and administrative expenses for Native Americans under section 4(b) of the Food and Nutrition Act.
         
         The SNAP contingency fund holds benefits in reserve to cover unforeseen events, such as natural disasters and fluctuations
            in food prices.
         
         In addition, the Budget proposes an advance appropriation and enhanced flexibility in the fourth quarter to conform the treatment
            of SNAP with other direct spending programs subject to appropriations that serve low-income individuals, such as Medicaid,
            SSI, Child Support, and Foster Care.

         The Child Nutrition Programs provide reimbursement to State agencies for cash and commodity meal subsidies through the National
            School Lunch Program (NSLP), School Breakfast Program (SBP), Special Milk Program, Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), and
            Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). These programs provide nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free breakfasts and
            lunches to children every school day; provide nutrition assistance to children when school is not in session during summer
            months; and improve the quality of day care, making it more affordable for low-income families by providing reimbursement
            for nutritious meals and snacks. In addition, the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable program (FFVP), targeted to low-income elementary
            schools, provides fresh fruits and vegetables at no charge to children during the school day. The 2016 Budget will support
            almost 5.2 billion lunches and snacks served to 30.3 million children in the NSLP, almost 2.5 billion breakfasts served to
            14.6 million children in the SBP, and over 2.0 billion meals and snacks served in day care facilities.

         This account funds the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP), The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), farmers'
            market nutrition programs, assistance for the nuclear- affected islands, and disaster relief.
         
         CSFP provides food packages for low-income elderly persons and for some low-income women, infants and children. It also funds
            State administrative expenses. TEFAP provides cash to support State administrative activities and to maintain the storage
            and distribution pipeline for USDA and privately-donated commodities (TEFAP commodities are separately funded through the
            Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) account). The account also funds two programs which provide low-income participants
            vouchers to purchase produce at farmers' markets. The Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program is funded by transfer from
            the Commodity Credit Corporation. The WIC Farmers' Market Program is funded by discretionary appropriation.

         The 2016 Budget requests $341,924,000 for Capital Improvement and Maintenance, a decrease of $18,450,000 below the funding
            enacted for 2015. Funding provides for capital improvement and maintenance of Forest Service assets including facilities,
            roads, and trails. Addressing critical maintenance and operational components of the Forest Service demonstrates our commitment
            to maintaining a healthy environment. The program emphasizes an efficient and effective infrastructure that supports public
            and administrative uses and quality recreation experiences with minimal impact to ecosystem stability and conditions.
         
         Capital improvement of facilities, roads, and trails includes alteration of existing assets to change the function of the
            assets, or expansion of an asset to change the capacity or to serve needs that are different from what was originally intended.
            The 2016 Budget shifts activities previously conducted under the Legacy Roads and Trails program, such as road decommissioning,
            to the Integrated Resource Restoration program in the National Forest System (NFS) appropriation. The Budget also includes
            an increase of $30,301,000 for Deferred Maintenance and Infrastructure Improvement above the 2015 enacted level. The funding
            increase will allow the Forest Service to make strategic infrastructure investments to reduce the maintenance backlog, including
            improvements to dams, bridges, significant public and administrative facilities on national monuments and other NFS lands,
            and to complete the disposal of underutilized and decommissioned facilities.
         
         Facilities._Provides for capital improvement and maintenance of recreation developed sites, fire, administrative, and other facilities,
            including visitor centers, research facilities, telecommunication sites and towers, and dams, and acquisition of buildings,
            and other facilities necessary to carry out the mission of the Forest Service.
         
         Roads._Provides for capital improvement and maintenance of the National Forest road system, including bridges and terminal facilities
            such as parking lots, trailhead parking, camping spurs, and truck turnarounds. The agency continues to address the growing
            road system maintenance backlog. Funding priorities are health and safety and resource protection, including clean water,
            aquatic passage, and mission- critical needs.
         
         Trails._Provides for capital improvement and maintenance of NFS trails. Funding is used to keep trails open for access and to protect
            vegetation, soil, and water quality.
         
         Deferred Maintenance and Infrastructure Improvement._Provides for capital improvement and maintenance directed toward reducing the backlog in deferred maintenance on NFS roads
            and trails, as well as recreation developed sites and fire, administrative, and other facilities. Funding priorities are to
            ensure the safety of the public, agency employees, volunteers, and contractors.

         The 2016 Budget requests $291,982,000 for Forest and Rangeland Research (Forest Service R&D), a decrease of $4,018,000 below
            the funding enacted for 2015. Funding requested maintains an essential level of basic research associated with the Priority
            Research Areas and Strategic Program Areas, while also providing a targeted increase of $13 million for the Forest Inventory
            and Analysis program to allow for complete field inventory work in all 50 States and in U.S. Territories and to initiate a
            robust landscape scale inventory and analysis effort in interior Alaska.  Forest Service R&D is federally mandated to provide
            new knowledge and technologies to foster healthy watersheds, forest products, wildlife protection, outdoor recreation opportunities,
            and other benefits, across all U.S. territories and States. Forest Service R&D accomplishes this mandate through ecological
            and social science research to understand ecosystems, how humans influence those ecosystems, how those ecosystems respond
            to the impacts of climate change, and how forests can be managed sustainably to support both environmental conservation and
            economic opportunities. These research products and services increase the basic biological and physical knowledge base of
            the composition, structure, and function of forest and grassland ecosystems.
         
         Forest Service R&D is federally mandated to provide new knowledge and technologies to support sustainable management of the
            Nation's forests and rangelands, sustain jobs and provide environmental, social and economic benefits including healthy watersheds,
            forest products, wildlife protection, outdoor recreation , and other benefits , across all U.S. territories and States. Research
            is conducted at five Research Stations, the Forest Products Laboratory, and the International Institute of Tropical Forestry
            located in Puerto Rico. The Forest Service R&D structure has two components: Priority Research Areas and Strategic Program
            Areas. The Priority Research Areas address national needs in seven areas: Forest Inventory and Analysis, Forest Disturbances,
            Watershed Management and Restoration, Bioenergy and Biobased Products, Urban Natural Resources Stewardship, Nanotechnology,
            and Localized Needs Research. Strategic Program Areas include Wildland Fire and Fuels; Invasive Species; Recreation; Resource
            Management and Use; Water, Air, and Soil; Wildlife and Fish; and Inventory and Monitoring. The 2016 Budget sustains the outputs
            and products on which land managers depend for developing management options, strategies, and systems for addressing current
            issues.

         The 2016 Budget requests $1,648,314,000 for the National Forest System (NFS), an increase of $153,984,000 above the funding
            enacted for 2015, for the stewardship and management of the 193 million acres of national forests and grasslands. This includes
            the 154 national forests and 20 national grasslands located in 44 States and Puerto Rico that are managed under multiple-use
            and sustained-yield principles. The natural resources of timber, minerals, range, wildlife, outdoor recreation, watershed,
            and soil are used in a planned combination that best meets the needs of the Nation without impairing productivity of the land
            or damaging the environment.
         
         The 2016 Budget prioritizes funding of programs designed to increase the health and resilience of the national forests and
            grasslands, while also meeting the multiple use requirements for the resources on our Nation's forests and grasslands. Increases
            are provided for the Integrated Resource Restoration program (IRR) and the Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration program
            (CFLRP) which can be used to reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires, increase water quantity and quality, improve carbon
            sequestration, and increase economic opportunities and jobs. These increases support a broader goal of mitigating fire risk,
            protecting communities, preparing for wildland fire, and suppressing wildland fire where and when appropriate, while meeting
            other critical land management goals.
         
         Following the Secretary's all-lands vision, the 2016 Budget focuses on meeting the challenges of ecological restoration through
            collaborative approaches to address fire risk and hazardous fuels, invasive plant and pest species, and watershed degradation.
            Advancing the all-lands vision includes collaboratively engaging communities to help Americans reconnect to the outdoors,
            expanding on recreation benefits and create a wide range of opportunities for economic expansion to retain and create jobs,
            and partnering with communities and fellow agencies to reduce the threat of wildland fires. The goals of these efforts are
            to reestablish and retain the resilience of NFS lands, to achieve sustainable management and use, and to provide a broad range
            of ecosystem services.
         
         The 2016 Budget emphasizes Integrated Resource Restoration (IRR) as a priority approach to accomplish on-the-ground restoration.
            The IRR program promotes improved forest and grassland health and resilience using landscape scale restoration to recover
            watershed health and clean water and create or maintain local economic opportunities and jobs. The IRR program does this by
            improving the efficient delivery of NFS programs and integrating watershed protection and restoration into all aspects of
            our management of national forests and grasslands. This allows the Forest Service to more effectively accomplish forest health
            and water quality improvement goals.
         
         The 2016 Budget also prioritizes investments through the Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program (CFLRP)to foster
            collaborative, science-based restoration on priority forest landscapes across the Nation. The CFLRP was established specifically
            to create job stability, achieve a reliable wood supply, restore forest health, and reduce the costs of fire suppression in
            overgrown forests. The ultimate goal of the CFLRP is to collaboratively achieve improved forest benefits for people, water,
            and wildlife in a way that can be shared across broad landscapes.
         
         The 2016 Budget reflects the continuing emphasis on Forest Service program performance and accountability agency-wide. The
            Forest Service business rules for accomplishment reporting incorporate not only directly funded work, but also accomplishments
            achieved through integration between program areas or partnerships with external groups. This effort improves performance
            and accountability by shifting focus to accomplishments that naturally align other programs and partner organizations to achieve
            multiple goals.

         The 2016 Budget requests $236,611,000 for State and Private Forestry, an increase of $3,958,000 above the funding enacted
            for 2015. State and Private Forestry programs provide technical assistance to landowners and resource managers to help sustain
            forests on State and private lands, in both rural and urban areas, and protect communities and the natural environment from
            wildland fires, tree pests and diseases, and invasive plants. These programs also help facilitate sound resource stewardship
            by providing tools to address forest health threats on a landscape scale, while maintaining the flexibility for individual
            forest landowners to pursue their objectives.
         
         The Administration has developed a strategic approach to address catastrophic fire risk. There are three main issues that
            need to be addressed for a comprehensive plan of action. The first key is to address wildland fire suppression costs by providing
            a stable source of funding while minimizing the destabilizing transfers from non- fire programs. The second is to improve
            the management of federal lands, the benefits of which will include both a reduction in wildland fire risk and an increase
            in fire fighter safety. The third issue is for non-federal land managers, including private land owners, to implement actions
            to reduce the risk of fire and increase the resiliency of these lands to fire, when it occurs.
         
         Landscape Scale Restoration._Funds projects focused on issues and landscapes of national importance and on activities that promise meaningful outcomes.
            Outcomes are measured by improved data collection using streamlined spatial reporting tools. Building upon the State and Private
            Forestry Redesign process, Landscape Scale Restoration prioritizes resources to shape forest land use on a scale that optimizes
            public benefits from forests. As a competitive grant program, it provides flexible opportunities to fund innovative projects
            across program boundaries and across landscape jurisdictions to address priorities and needs consistent with the State Forest
            Action Plans, as well as projects that will be conducted to restore healthy and resilient forests and communities. Funding
            of this program is a critical part of the Forest Service's capacity to reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires, improve
            water quality and quantity and increase carbon sequestration.
         
         Forest Health Management._Funds Federal and cooperative lands to maintain healthy, productive ecosystems by preventing, detecting, and suppressing damaging
            native and invasive insects and tree diseases across all land ownership jurisdictions, and invasive plants on cooperative
            lands. Based on a science-based forest health risk map, the 2016 Budget allocates funding to address national priorities and
            reduce risk in the most effective and efficient manner. The agency will document changes in insect, disease, and invasive
            plant geographic range, population dynamics of host preferences of pests, and other changes in pest activity and will explore
            gene conservation efforts. Funding of this program is a critical part of the Forest Service's capacity to continue to reduce
            the risk of catastrophic wildfires, improve water quality and quantity and increase carbon sequestration.
         
         Cooperative Forestry._Funds the Forest Stewardship, Forest Legacy, Community Forest and Open Space Conservation, and Urban and Community Forestry
            programs. These complementary programs help maintain the integrity of our Nation's valuable forested landscapes and supports
            the Federal interest in obtaining and preserving for the public an array of social, economic, and environmental benefits from
            privately owned forests. The Forest Service will track how cooperative funds are targeted to priority areas and themes identified
            in State Forest Action Plans.
         
         Forest Stewardship Program._Provides professional forestry assistance to landowners to encourage sound environmental management of non-industrial private
            forest lands.
         
         Forest Legacy Program._Partners with States to protect environmentally sensitive forestlands. Consistent with the President's commitment to the America's
            Great Outdoors Initiative, the Budget includes funding for the Forest Legacy Program through the Land and Water Conservation
            Fund to support the acquisition of conservation easements and other interests in forest lands threatened by conversion. These
            easements protect air and water quality, provide access for recreation, and provide habitat for threatened or endangered species.
         
         Mandatory Land and Water Conservation Fund._$900 million, including $400 million in discretionary funding and $500 million in mandatory funding in 2016; proposes to permanently
            authorize $900 million in annual mandatory funding for the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture for Land and Water
            Conservation Fund programs beginning in 2017.
         
         Community Forest and Open Space Conservation._Funds grants to local and Tribal governments and qualified nonprofit organizations to establish community forests by acquiring
            and protecting forestlands.
         
         Urban and Community Forestry._Provides technical, financial, and educational assistance to localities nationwide to improve the condition and extent of
            their trees and forests to achieve the full range of benefits and services from these resources. This program improves the
            lives of most Americans near where they live and work.
         
         International Forestry._Assists agencies with missions centrally focused on international issues with natural resource conservation.

            Control Act of 1985, as amended, to establish a new budget framework for the Wildland Fire Management program that is designed
            to provide stable funding for fire suppression, while minimizing the adverse impacts of fire transfers on the budgets of other
            fire and non-fire programs, as well as reduce fire risk, manage landscapes more comprehensively, and increase the resiliency
            of public lands and the communities that border them. In this proposed new budget framework, a portion of the funding need
            for suppression response is funded within the discretionary spending limits and a portion is funded in an adjustment to those
            limits. In addition, it does not increase overall discretionary spending, as it would reduce the ceiling for the existing
            disaster relief cap adjustment by an equivalent amount as is provided from wildfire suppression operations. More detail is
            provided in the Budget Process chapter in the Analytical Perspectives volume.
         
         Preparedness._To ensure agency capability to protect life, property, and natural resources while assuring an appropriate, risk informed,
            and effective response to wildfires that is consistent with land and resource management objectives. Firefighter and public
            safety are the primary considerations for all operations.Preparedness provides for fire management assets that protect NFS, and other Federal, State, and private lands from damaging
               wildfires, thus reducing threats to life and values at risk commensurate with land management objectives in the Cohesive Strategy.
               Key components of the wildland fire response mission delivery are readiness capability and program leadership necessary to
               ensure appropriate, risk informed, and effective operations. Preparedness also supports other vital elements of a comprehensive
               wildland fire management program like modernization of the large airtanker fleet, planning, prevention, development of information
               technology and decision support systems, training and education, development and advancement of firefighting technology, and
               organizational learning through program analysis and review.Through this program the Forest Service also assists other Federal agencies and States with planning assistance, sharing joint
               equipment use contracts, and interagency fire coordination centers. Readiness levels reflect improvements in efficiencies
               and management controls, including predictive services analysis of fire season potential to strategically deploy firefighting
               resources, web-based wildfire decision support tools, centralized management of aviation assets, implementation of optimized
               dispatching analysis, and streamlining of information technology investments.
         Suppression._Risk-informed suppression of wildland fires on or threatening NFS lands, other Federal lands, and 20 million acres of non-Federal
            lands under fire protection agreements. The 2016 Budget request proposes an adjustment to the discretionary spending limits
            as a new approach for responsibly budgeting for wildland fire suppression to minimize the risk of fire transfers and provide
            more stability and certainty of funding to invest in critical forest and rangeland management needs. The Budget proposes a
            base level of funding of 70 percent of the 10-year average of suppression costs to be funded within the discretionary cap.
            The proposed cap adjustment would fund the remaining identified need for Suppression. The base level of funds ensures that
            the cap adjustment is only used for the most severe fire activity because it is one percent of the fires that results in 30
            percent of the costs. In 2016, suppression funding consists of 70 percent of the 10-year average for suppression expenditures,
            which is $788,492,000, plus $688,000 towards pay costs, and $5,354,000 towards seasonal employee Federal health benefit increases,
            for a total of $794,534,000. The amount requested in the budget adjustment equals the difference between the total amount
            of suppression expenditures projected for the fiscal year, based on the Outyear Forecast developed by the U.S. Forest Service's
            Southern Research Station, and 70 percent of the 10-year suppression average that is requested within the discretionary budget
            caps. For 2016, the request for the budget cap adjustment is $854,578,000.Wildfires continue to be larger and more difficult to suppress due to the effects of a changing climate, persistent drought,
               hazardous fuels conditions, and the increased size and complexity of housing developments adjacent to the wildland-urban interface
               (WUI). The Forest Service recognizes the costs of WUI suppression activities and will continue to aggressively pursue management
               improvements, including:â focusing hazardous fuels funding for treatments in the WUI,âusing risk-informed, performance-based suppression strategies,â clarifying roles and responsibilities in the WUI,â using appropriate cost-share agreements, andâ deploying decision support tools.Development of necessary governance and risk management protocols that will guide program management and incident response
               with the application of resources to reduce unnecessary risk to firefighter safety in the short-term and to the long-term
               resiliency of fire-adapted ecosystems will continue to be a focus. The Forest Service will also continue efforts to allow
               fire to return to the landscape when these fires will improve the health of the forest and when risks to safety and communities
               make it appropriate to do so.Forest Service Suppression Obligations 2005â2014 (dollars in thousands)

         Fire Operations, Other._The Other Fire Operations programs include Hazardous Fuels, National Fire Plan Research and Development, Joint Fire Sciences,
            State Fire Assistance, and Volunteer Fire Assistance. Funding will focus on treating hazardous fuels in the WUI and highest
            priority areas, research and technology transfer activities, and providing vital support to assist local communities and State
            foresters to develop firefighting capacity to provide critical preparedness and response actions for communities at risk.
            State and Volunteer Fire Assistance programs include funding to enhance the capacity of States to increase the fire adaptability
            of communities by providing funding and technical assistance to: (1) increase their initial attack capabilities, (2) reduce
            hazardous fuels in and around communities, and (3) purchase and maintain firefighting equipment. Funding also supports training,
            planning, and fire prevention, and education programs. The request for Hazardous Fuels provides funding for treatment of hazardous
            fuels within the WUI and highest priority areas of NFS lands and adjacent State and private lands. Treatments will be focused
            on the most strategic acres, which are often the most expensive because they require mechanical treatment or a combination
            of mechanical treatment with prescribed fire. Projects completed using hazardous fuels funds will focus on: strategically
            protecting communities (and associated lives, property, and public infrastructure) which are at the highest risk from damaging
            wildfire; providing a safer environment for wildland fire management operations; and supporting communities that are working
            to achieve Firewise standards and have identified acres to be treated in Community Wildfire Protection Plans or equivalent
            plans, and have made an investment in implementing local solutions to protect against wildland fire.The Hazardous Fuels program restores forest health and reduces wildfire risks. Hazardous fuel reduction modifies the arrangement
               of or reduces the volume of naturally occurring flammable vegetation and forest litter. The program includes prescribed burning,
               mechanical treatments, and other methods. Treatments are designed to alter fire behavior and reduce negative impacts of wildland
               fires such as erosion or soils that, due to high fire temperatures, shed water rather than absorbing it. Healthy, resilient
               landscapes have greater capacity to adapt to and withstand natural disturbances and large scale threats to sustainability,
               especially under changing and uncertain future environmental conditions such as those created by climate change.

         The 2016 Budget requests $2,320,000 for the Range Betterment Fund and is commensurate with expected receipts. Fifty percent
            of grazing fees from national forests in the 16 western States, once appropriated, are used to protect and improve rangeland
            productivity primarily through revegetation, construction and reconstruction, and maintenance of improvements under authority
            of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1751), as amended. This program emphasizes essential structural
            and non-structural improvements prescribed in grazing allotment management plans and other project plans as developed according
            to the National Environmental Policy Act. Treatment of invasive plant species related to permitted livestock use continues
            to be a priority for non-structural rangeland improvement work, such as fencing for proper livestock management and vegetation
            management for restoring rangelands to healthy conditions.

         Stewardship Contracting._The Forest Service may enter into stewardship projects via agreement or contract to perform services to achieve land management
            goals and meet local and rural community needs. Stewardship contracting product sales enable the Forest Service to apply the
            value of timber or other forest products from stewardship sales as an offset against the costs to accomplish land and resource
            management objectives. If the offset value exceeds the value of the resource improvement treatments, those receipts are retained
            and deposited in the Stewardship Contracting Fund and are available until expended for other authorized stewardship projects.
            This authority was reauthorized permanently, pursuant to P.L. 113â79, Agricultural Act of 2014.

         The 2016 Budget requests $65,166,000 for the Land Acquisition accounts, an increase of $16,500,000 above funding enacted for
            2015. This heading consolidates land acquisition authorities for acquisition of lands, waters, or interest therein, as authorized
            by law. Consistent with the President's commitment to the America's Great Outdoors Initiative, the Budget will provide funding
            for land acquisition through the Land and Water Conservation Fund to support the acquisition of high-priority forests and
            grasslands. This program is included in the proposal for mandatory funding for the Land and Water Conservation Fund. The 2016
            Federal Land Acquisition program builds on efforts started in 2013 to strategically invest in interagency landscape-scale
            conservation projects while continuing to meet agency-specific programmatic needs. The Department of the Interior and the
            U.S. Forest Service collaborated extensively to develop a process to more effectively coordinate land acquisitions with government
            and local community partners to achieve highest priority shared conservation goals.
         
         Land Acquisition._Lands and other interests are acquired adjacent to areas of the National Forest System (NFS) for such purposes as outdoor
            recreation, wilderness management, wildlife habitat conservation, watershed protection and enhancement, resource management,
            and land consolidation.Mandatory Land and Water Conservation Fund.âThe Administration proposes $900,000,000 in discretionary and mandatory funding in 2015, $400,000,000 in discretionary and
               $500,000,000 mandatory funding in 2016 for a total of $900,000,000, and proposes to permanently authorize $900,000,000 in
               annual mandatory funding for the Departments of Agriculture and the Interior Land and Water Conservation Fund programs beginning
               in 2017.
         Acquisition of Lands for National Forests, Special Acts._To acquire lands within critical watersheds to provide soil stabilization and restoration of vegetation. Public Laws 76â589,
            76â591 and 78â310 (54 Stat. 297, 298, 299, and 402; and 58 Stat. 227â228) authorize appropriations for the purchase of lands
            within the following national forests: the Cache, Uinta, and Wasatch, in Utah; the Toiyabe, in Nevada; and the Angeles, Cleveland,
            San Bernardino, and Sequoia, in California. Appropriations are made from receipts on these national forests.
         
         Acquisition of Lands to Complete Land Exchanges._Deposits are made by State, county, or municipal governments, public school authorities, or non-Federal parties and are used
            to acquire lands for National Forest System or other authorized purposes.
         
         Land Facilities Enhancement Fund._This fund includes the Conveyance of Administrative Sites Program and the Sites Specific Lands Acts Program. These programs
            enable specific national forests and grasslands to convey land or facilities and use the proceeds to acquire, construct, or
            improve land and facilities within the same national forest or State. They also provide for the realignment of the agency's
            facility portfolio by providing an incentive for local managers to liquidate obsolete or underutilized assets and reinvest
            in assets that best support the agency's mission (U.S.C. 590d note).

         Payments to States._The Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act (SRS Act) provides for transitional assistance to rural counties

            2013, pursuant to P.L. 113â40, the Helium Stewardship Act of 2013. Payments were made in FY 2014 with FY 2013 receipts.If the SRS Act is not reauthorized, States will revert to the Payments to States Act of 1908, as amended (16 U.S.C. 500) which
               requires, with a few exceptions, that 25 percent of all monies received from the national forests and deposited into the National
               Forest Fund during a fiscal year from timber, grazing, special-use permits, power and mineral leases, and admission and user
               fees be paid to the States in which the national forests are located, for public schools and public roads in the county or
               counties in which the national forests are situated.The Budget reflects a mandatory reauthorization and four-year phase-out through 2019, of the SRS Act. This SRS proposal revises
               the allocation split between the three portions of the program from the current authority emphasizing enhancement of forest
               ecosystems, restoration and improvement of land health and water quality and the increase of economic activity.

         Roads and Trails (10 Percent) Fund._10 percent of all national forest receipts are used by the Forest Service to repair or reconstruct roads, bridges, and trails
            on NFS lands to correct road and trail deficiencies that adversely affect ecosystems. Since FY 2008, Congress has directed
            that funds becoming available be transferred to Treasury.
         
         Licensee Program._Funds from fees for the use of characters by private enterprises are collected under regulations promulgated by the Secretary.

         Quinault Special Management Area._The Forest Service manages the natural resources and distributes proceeds from the sale of forest products in the Quinault
            Special Management Area of the Olympic National Forest between the State of Washington (45 percent), the Quinault Tribe (45

            timber sales. (P.L 100â638) (102 Stat. 3327).

         The Working Capital Fund is a self-sustaining revolving fund that provides services to national forests, to research experiment
            stations, to other Federal agencies when necessary, to State and private agencies as provided by law, and to persons who cooperate
            with the Forest Service in fire control and other authorized programs. Forestry-related supply and support services include:
         
         Equipment Services._The Fund owns, operates, maintains, replaces, and repairs common-use, motor-driven, and similar equipment. This equipment
            is rented to administrative units including national forests, research experiment stations, other Forest Service units, and
            to other federal and non-federal agencies, at rates which recover the cost of operation, repair and maintenance, management,
            and depreciation. The rental rates also include an increment which, when added to depreciation cost recovery and the residual
            value of equipment, provides sufficient funds to replace the equipment. The Budget includes Forest Service implementation,
            in conjunction with the General Services Administration, of a vehicle allocation methodology that analyzes fleet vehicle effectiveness,
            life cycle costs, vehicle pooling, procurement practices, and reduction of operating costs.
         
         Aircraft Services._The Fund operates, maintains, and repairs Forest Service-owned aircraft used in fire surveillance and suppression and in other
            Forest Service programs.  Aircraft replacement costs are financed from either appropriated funds or the Forest Service Working
            Capital Fund, or a combination of both.
         
         Supply Services._The Fund operates the following common services and provides for cost-recovery of Working Capital Fund Program Management:
            photo reproduction laboratories that store, reproduce, and supply aerial photographs, aerial maps, and other photographs of
            national forest lands. Photographic reproductions are sold to national forests, research experiment stations, and others at
            cost. Sign shops that manufacture and supply special signs for the national forests for use in regulating traffic and as information
            to the public and other users of the national forests. Signs are sold to national forests and research experiment stations
            at cost.
         
         Nurseries._The Fund operates seed supply services that provide tree seeds for direct seeding or sowing in nurseries for the production
            of trees. Activities include purchase or collection of cones, extraction of seeds, cleaning and testing, and storage and delivery.
            The fund operates in conjunction with forest tree nurseries and cold storage facilities for storage of tree seedlings. Tree
            seedlings are sold to national forests, State foresters, and other cooperators at cost.
